Almost modern in their angular geometry, this pair of 19th-century stools was originally used for everyday, easy portable seating and steps in a traditional courtyard home in Northern China. Double stretcher bars on two ends go perpendicular to two along the bottom, creating sturdy seats and wonderful form. Chinese seating is always a bit higher than in West because people liked to elevate their feet off traditional cold floors.
