An early 20th century Egyptian Revival tortoise bamboo Thebes stool. Diagonally laid bamboo slats across a curved seat with tight joinery made of genuine bamboo reeds. This Thebes stool is visually stunning and contains both Egyptian Revival and English styled influence. Excellent craftsmanship is displayed throughout the piece with a simple fretwork bamboo frame with four straight reed legs. The burnt tortoise bamboo finish completes a timeless design. Remains sturdy and strong and can be used as originally designed.
