Description:
A pair of Egyptian Revival 'Thebes' three-legged stools, to a design attributed to Leonard Wyburd for Liberty & Co., London, c.1894. Oak with highly figured grain, concave seat raised on three flaring legs. Height 400., Thebes stool designs were inspired by furniture and paintings unearthed from royal tombs in the ancient Egyptian city for which they are named. Leonard Wyburd, who was one of the principal designers for Liberty, patented his designs for the stools in 1884. Liberty continued to make the popular stools into the early 1900s, whilst the Austrian architect Adolf Loos produced variants for his Villa Duschnitz interior.
