This provenance adds significant historical value, making them not only beautiful but also rich in heritage. Currently located in Redmond, WA, these stools have been well-preserved and are in good condition.

This item is part of a chest and stools set that has been together for hundreds of years (search "lion's paw style"). For those who purchase both the chest and the stools, a discount of $500 is available.
NOTE: We do not have a certificate to confirm that the stools are from the 16th century, but this is what has been passed down in our family. I was told this by my grandfather, Giovanni Damaggio. less
