Description
The design features a singular straight back rail set above a wide plank seat, all supported by bold turned legs surmounted by ball finials and held together at base with with two shoe feet. The combination of robust joinery and sculptural turning underscores both function and craft, reflecting the rustic yet architectural traditions of late 19th-century French furniture.
