"Wonderful addition to our home"
We love our new multipurpose stool. Excellent craftsmanship. The hand tooled leather top is beautiful. It has been used as a stool, a footrest, and a low table. Very, very sturdy and a perfect size. Very easy to move around. It s very popular and has caught the eye of most visitors and several have expressed interest in buying one for themselves. I m writing this review as I am buying one for a friend.

"A Queens Treasure"
Oh my what a masterpiece! Ive been waiting several years for this chair. It arrived VERY well wrapped and all in order. The instructions were mostly clear though the pics were a bit dark. It wouldve helped to have items labelled A,B,C. I needed a second pair of hands to securely hammer in the back and arms. We did have to file down the two grooves but all then fit well. When all was done I sat back in awe. The carving and quality is superior and Id say its my fave Novica buy thus far. I did make one error in placing the bottom arches on the wrong side. Still it is a beauty and makes the back of the chair a beauty as well!

"Beautiful leather work"
Love this stool. Its the perfect size in our master bath. Good to drape your bath towel on or to sit on to apply lotion, etc. The leather work is done beautifully.

"Even More Beautiful Than I Expected"
This is an absolutely beautiful piece that looks just like the photo online. Its easy to assemble because the pieces are hand-numbered, so the artisan has already determined the best fit of each leg. I am redoing my interior to better match the Spanish style of the exterior of my home, and this piece sets exactly the right tone.
