Description
Introducing the Early 1900's Oscar Bach Style Griffin Metal X Base Stool, a magnificent piece that captures the essence of Neoclassical design. This hand-forged, wrought iron stool showcases a stunning x-frame bench with opposing ended Gryphons, adding a touch of mythical elegance to any space.
One of the standout features of this stool is the forged floral decoration at the center of the x-base cross frame. This intricate detail pays homage to the Neoclassical style, adding a sense of sophistication and artistry to the overall design.
At Turtle and Crane Atelier, we have given this stool a new lease on life by meticulously finishing it with hand-applied gold leaf, layers of paint, and waxes. This careful process not only adds a touch of luxury but also creates a time-earned patina that enhances the stool's beauty.
This stool is a true representation of craftsmanship, as it is American-made and approximately 85 years old. Adorning the sides are winged griffins, which add a sense of grandeur and mystery. While the maker remains unknown, the quality and attention to detail speak volumes about its origins.
