Description

A mid 19th century country stool, the thick, single-piece circular elm seat with incised line detail to the edge, raised on splayed turned legs united by stretchers.

With an uncompromising vernacular character, from its slightly warped seat and charming asymmetry to its beautifully weathered surfaces born from generations of traditional utility, the piece functions perfectly as an occasional hall perch or fireside companion.

Very good antique condition, with lots of characterful surface wear and a pleasing patina. Structurally sound, stable and ready to place.

English, circa 1850.

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.

FAQs

Early Victorian country furniture is characterised by utilitarian design, regional craftsmanship, and the use of locally sourced native timbers such as elm and beech.

These pieces typically feature solid elm seats shaped through adzing, combined with turned beech legs fitted via traditional wedged mortise and tenon joints.

Authenticity is indicated by hand-turned components, natural timber shrinkage, age-related patination, and the absence of modern machine-cut joinery.

Such items function effectively as occasional seats, plant stands, or side tables, adding textural warmth and historical contrast to contemporary spaces.

Preservation involves maintaining stable indoor humidity levels, avoiding direct sunlight, and occasionally applying microcrystalline wax to nourish the wood surface.
