Victorian Organist’s Adjustable Stool with Claw & Glass Ball Feet

Description

Victorian Organist’s Adjustable Stool with Claw & Glass Ball Feet

A superb Victorian c.1870s adjustable organist’s stool, featuring the iconic cast metal claw feet clutching glass crystal balls – a design strongly associated with late 19th-century musical furniture and the Gothic Revival aesthetic. Beautifully balanced, highly decorative, and wonderfully practical, this piece brings instant character to any interior.

Crafted with a turned central column and smooth height-adjustment mechanism, this stool would have originally been used by a church organist or parlour pianist. The dramatic claw-and-ball feet not only provided stability but were chosen for visual impact, symbolising Victorian craftsmanship at its most expressive.

This is an ideal piece for interior designers, musicians, collectors, and lovers of characterful antique seating. It works equally well as a unique piano or keyboard seat, a quirky dressing stool, or simply as an eye-catching accent within a period or eclectic modern home.
