Waxed leather stool finished in a deep navy blue with a cross hatch pattern

Delightfully broad barley twist support column houses the brass riser when lowered
Collar with scroll motif unites the column with the highly distinctive octagonal base
An octet of pad feet, each adorned with a relief carved cabochon
