  • MaterialBurr Oak
  • ColourDark Brown
  • MotifsThree splayed legs, Rectangular seat, Pegged construction

Primitive wooden stools were traditionally hand-crafted by country artisans and farmers using locally sourced timber for everyday utilitarian use in cottages and farmhouses.

These pieces typically feature solid native hardwoods like oak, elm, or ash constructed with traditional pegged mortise-and-tenon joints or simple splayed round legs.

Authentic items display period-correct hand tool marks, natural timber shrinkage, oxidisation, and genuine wear patterns around the seat edges and foot ends.

Such pieces add organic warmth and tactile texture when used as a compact display platform for plants and ceramics or positioned beside seating.

Maintain the timber by keeping it away from direct heat sources and applying occasional natural beeswax to nourish the historic surface finish.
