The Sustainable Choice

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.

FAQs

Originating in the nineteenth century, a Canterbury stool is a low piece of furniture designed to store sheet music or small items within a lower cabinet or partitioned section beneath a padded seat.

These pieces were typically crafted from hardwoods such as walnut, mahogany, or rosewood, often paired with leather or textile upholstery and brass castors for mobility.

Authentic period examples feature hand-cut joinery, intricate fretwork or carved detailing such as barley twist columns, period brass hardware, and natural timber patination from age.

A Canterbury stool functions effectively as an end-of-sofa seat, a compact side table, or a footstool in a living area, home library, or music room.

Keep the timber clean using a soft cloth and occasional beeswax polish, condition the leather surface periodically, and keep the piece away from direct heat sources to prevent cracking.
