Stool with Whittling Knife

19th century
Description

The previous stool and this one came from the same farm so possibly started off life at a similar time. This one, however, is a complete one off and worthy of being in a Museum. The blade would have been used for whittling wood before working it or using it in wattle and daub construction. The blade is very similar to a drawknife but turned back to front. As I mentioned before I would prefer the two stools be purchased and kept together and will offer a special consideration to the lucky buyer.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Primitive milking stools are utilitarian domestic seating items typically handcrafted by country craftspeople using local timbers for agricultural or household tasks.

These stools feature solid timber slabs joined to hand-turned or shaved legs using wedged through-tenon joinery without metal fasteners.

Genuine period examples display hand-hewn tool marks, uneven wear patterns around the legs and seat edges, and natural wood shrinkage around exposed tenons.

A rustic stool functions as a plant stand, an occasional side table beside low seating, or a decorative display riser on a hearth or counter.

Keep the timber dusted with a soft dry cloth and apply clear beeswax sparingly to protect the wood grain while keeping it away from direct heat sources.
