I have an old chair with a turnable seat to adjust higher or lower, no arms, claw feet holding clear glass or crystal balls. It's small, about 4 feet tall with dark wood, and metal attachments for the turnstyle.
I was not sure what type of chair it is. My neighbor told me it might be a piano chair; it looks old. It is not 4 feet tall, but more like 3 feet. Is my neighbor possibly right (without looking at a picture) that it is a piano chair?
Yes, it IS a piano stool. It adjusts for height by spinning the seat of the stool around.

Perhaps it was a chair that a "midget person" used. They wouldn't use normal size furniture because they wouldn't fit into it. Perhaps a piano playing "midget person" used it in a traveling carnival? Something to think about eh?

It could be-my roommate was classically trained in Italy, and he says that most piano benches open up for sheet music. But I think you'll have more luck with goolging piano benches. Rarely are the two sold separate. But, who knows?

Piano stools come as you describe yours and also rectangular. Go to google and type in "piano stool" a lot of sites will come up that have pics of piano stools. A few are round.
