Superbly Patinated Oak and Ash Stool

17th century
Sold 29 May 2025 · Havard and Havard
This “Superbly Patinated Oak and Ash Stool” found a buyer.

It was listed by Havard and Havard. Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.

Description

The colour and patina on this substantially constructed stool are exceptional. The recessed panel top is made from a well-figured, single plank within a heavily moulded border. Very unusually, this moulding is carved into the tops of the legs to give a more finished, framed appearance which would also allow for a cushion or squab.

The well-drawn, ring and baluster-turned legs are joined by a moulded-edge frieze and moulded-top stretchers, on ball feet (one later retipped). There is evidence to suggest that this stool incorporates reused material when constructed around the end of the 17th century.

English, circa 1680-1700

Joint stools originate from the 16th and 17th centuries, constructed by joiners using mortise and tenon joints secured with wooden pegs rather than being nailed together.

These pieces were typically crafted from native British hardwoods, primarily oak for the structural frames and sometimes ash or elm for secondary components.

Authenticity is indicated by hand-cut joints, traditional pegging, period tool marks, timber shrinkage, and natural wax patination developed over centuries of use.

This type of antique furniture adds warmth and historical contrast when used as a side table beside a clean-lined modern sofa or as an accent piece in a minimalist room.

Preserve the surface by keeping it away from direct heat sources and sunlight, dusting regularly with a dry cloth, and occasionally applying traditional beeswax.
