This unusual lacquered stool is a 19th-century barber's stool designed to be carried from place to place for roadside haircuts. Crafted with traditional mortise-and-tenon joinery, the stool has a splayed-leg frame with enclosed sides, an elongated seat, and four small drawers for storing tools, money and accessories. The narrow seat hangs well past the sides for a dramatic silhouette and features a brass coin slot for accepting payment from customers. Years of use have imparted a rich patina to the black lacquer finish and timeworn wear to the teardrop brass pulls.

Elizabeth Krueger | Elizabeth Krueger Design

“PAGODA RED was extremely supportive in helping to pull accessory options together for the Lake Forest Showhouse. After providing them with details and our vision on how we were looking to finish our space, Laurene helped curate options that made it easy for us to edit and finalize. It's also no surprise that the unique pieces we used in our showhouse space were some of the first to sell.”
