Solid wood drafting stool featuring a shaped plank seat and curved backrest mounted to an early iron swivel and height-adjustment mechanism. The seat rests on a central column supported by four flared legs joined by a circular stretcher ring, creating a stable, workshop-ready base. The visible spring and tension hardware beneath the seat speak to its original drafting or clerical function-built for long hours at a drawing table or high work surface. The wood retains a warm, honey-toned finish with honest surface wear that highlights decades of use. The form is direct and utilitarian, yet subtly refined in its curved back supports and arched leg profile. A practical piece of early 20th-century industrial design-purpose-built, adjustable, and enduring.
