Etymology

From Proto-Germanic *stōlaz (“stool, chair, throne”). Cognate with Old English stōl, Old Frisian stōl, Old Saxon stōl, Old Dutch stuol, Old High German stuol, Gothic 𐍃𐍄𐍉𐌻𐍃 (stōls). Ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *stāl- (“frame, rack, stand”). The second meaning is a calque of Latin sēdēs (“seat”), while the third is presumably a calque of Latin thronī (“the Thrones”). See: Gothic Nouns '𐍃𐍄𐍉𐌻𐍃', Latin Nouns 'sēdēs'.
