Legs and stretchers are decorated to resemble bamboo with smooth columnar turnings that have regular flared and incised rings enhanced by black paint. Seat cushion is rectangular. Much of the upholstery components are not visible and likely replaced. The padding is probably horsehair. Current upholstery, a tufted floral chintz with cream trim, is believed to be the third upholstery campaign spearheaded by Mrs. Marjorie Drake Ross in the 1960s. Also associated with the stool is a linen slip cover of printed multi-colored floral pattern from the second upholstery campaign (per Wendy Swanton, Curator). The slip cover has multi-colored upholstery trim.  Stool has four legs which are bamboo-turned, taper and flare outward at bottom. The legs?ÇÖ method of attachment to the seat rail is unclear, although remnants of glue are visible. A turned stretcher runs between each of the legs and there is a cross stretcher beneath seat. There is a bamboo-turned sphere at center of cross stretcher. Two bamboo-turned elements form a decorative bracket between the seat bottom and side stretchers on each side. The horizontal element extending from the leg has a cove taper terminating in a small ball."},{"label":"Date Digitized","value":"7/25/2018"},{"label":"Marks, Signatures, and Inscriptions","value":"None found"},{"label":"Basis of Materials","value":"Primary wood of stool is a diffuse porous hardwood.

Vaughn, who advertised primarily as an upholsterer. Vaughn was active in Boston from about 1862-about 1874. City directories identify him as an upholsterer employed by Henry A. Turner or Henry A. Turner & Co. from 1862-1867. He is listed under his own name from 1868-1869 and under John J. Vaughn & Co. from 1870-1873. In 1872 and 1873, Charles J. Blaney is listed as a partner in the firm. Some of the city directory listings for John J. Vaughn & Co. state that the company manufactured furniture as well. It is possible, however, that Vaughn only retailed the set and that it was made elsewhere; the faux bamboo treatment is commonly associated with New York City.  John J. Vaughn relocated to Haverhill, Massachusetts, sometime between 1874 and 1876. An 1877 Haverhill newspaper includes an advertisement for J. J. Vaughn, Interior and Exterior Decorator. In 1880 he is listed as a commission merchant in Haverhill."},{"label":"Maker","value":["Blaney, Charles J., upholsterer, interior decorator, and furniture retailer, active about 1872-1873","John J.
