Antique Round Elm Stool – Unique Piece
Country of origin: China
Era: 19th Century
Dimensions: 25 cm x 25 cm x H 50 cm
Weight: 5 kg
Material: Elm (Ulmus parvifolia)

Crafted from solid elm (Ulmus parvifolia), this stool, once found in homes and workshops, is distinguished by its thick circular seat and three slightly angled legs, joined by traditional joinery ensuring stability and durability. Elm is a wood species particularly prized in antique Chinese furniture for its resistance, expressive grain, and ability to develop a rich patina over decades.

The natural nuances of the wood, traces of wear, irregularities in the grain, and marks left by the years give this piece a warm and timeless presence. Each item we select embodies the Wabi-sabi spirit, celebrating the beauty of imperfections and the charm of objects that have endured through time. Both functional and decorative, this stool easily finds its place in an entryway, a bathroom, a living room, or as a stand to showcase an object or a plant.

Please note that this piece is unique and exhibits variations in color, texture, patina, shape, and wear, which attest to its authenticity and history.
