Your pair of stools are in the American Empire style, which peaked in popularity from 1815-30. Stools like these were made in all native hardwoods as well as imported mahogany and rosewood right into the 1850's. Based on what we can see in the images, this set appears to be walnut, but could also be Cuban mahogany.
