Antique Hard To Find One-Of-A-Kind

Cantor stools, or tabourets de chantre, originated in 17th-century France as functional seating for church cantors during services. Crafted from sturdy oak, these stools feature a distinctive arch shape with a flat back, allowing them to sit flush against choir stalls or walls. Sylvie loves to use them as side tables flanking a sofa, positioned in an entryway, or placed beside a bed.

Minor variations from the images may occur unless otherwise noted. All sales are final.

As with many antiques, this piece may show gentle repairs, cracks, scratches, holes, years worth of patina, and stains - just the way we like it.
