A good example of a small primitive settle or lambing chair dating from the late 18th Century. It has a thick seat, high wing shaped sides to keep away drafts and two wide planks forming the back. It is made from elm and oak with a simple nailed construction and the most wonderful patina with some remains of dark green paint around the base in places.It is in good condition for its age and is generally strong and sturdy. There are lots of signs of age and use, various knocks and marks, some splits and old repairs but this has all helped to develop its lovely patina. There are some signs of historic worm in places which has all been treated as a precaution. It has been gently cleaned and polished and is ready for use.The best description comes from the photos so please look at them all carefully and if you have any questions just ask.
