Antique Miniature 19th Century Wooden Oak Apprentice Piano Stool / Seat / c.1850

Circa 1850

A Victorian miniature height adjustable oak piano stool 
With a straw worked cushioned seat that I believe still retains the original fabric. 

Most likely made by a young apprentice showing off their furniture making skills to the workshops owner. It is too big to be a dolls house example and I'm fairly sure too small to be a child's stool. 
This fantastic item could also have been taken around to furniture shops and prospect clients to show them an example of what they have for sale. 

A lovely item for any miniature furniture collector. 

Diameter 22.5cm
Minimum seat height 27cm 
Maximum seat heigh 33cm

Condition report - Good.
The stool has suffered from old woodworm (this has been fully treated twice as a precaution)
Small tear to the fabric (see last image)
Height adjustable mechanism works well. 

Item No, 4591
