Antique Victorian Elm & Beech Country Stool c.1850
A mid 19th century English country-made stool, the thick beautifully figured single-piece elm top raised on splayed turned beech legs, united by a hand-pinned ash H-stretcher.
The broad leg rake and low stance reflect traditional provincial vernacular construction, combining a well-figured, non-splitting elm seat slab with turned beech legs and resilient ash stretchers built to endure heavy domestic use. Its compact height and wide, sturdy footprint make it an exceptional fireside perch or a characterful low drinks table beside a deep armchair.
Very good antique condition, with a rich surface patination and authentic wear consistent with age and use. The hand-pinned framework remains completely tight, structurally sound, and ready to place in the home.
English, circa 1850.
