The present pair of stools is distinguished by the elegant cusped aprons, sometimes referred to as 'horse-belly' aprons. A related pair of huanghuali stools of similar proportions with beaded 'horse-belly' aprons and legs, formerly in the collection of Alice Boney, is illustrated by R. H. Ellsworth, Classical Chinese Furniture: Hardwood Examples of the Ming and Early Ch'ing Dynasties, New York, 1971, p. 203, no. 115. See, also, another pair constructed with plain 'horse belly' aprons and legs illustrated by R. Jacobson and N. Grindley, Classical Chinese Furniture in the Minneapolis Institute of Art, p. 38, no. 2.
