This set of three country stools originates from 1910 and displays a rustic farmhouse style suitable for traditional or country interiors. Each piece comprises warm brown oak woodwork paired with hand-woven rush seats in a natural straw colour. The frames incorporate heavily turned legs terminating in pad feet, joined together by curved cross stretchers for added structural support. Visible details include rounded corner joints on the frames, subtle grain patterns across the timber surfaces, and traditional woven seating patterns. The set consists of two larger matching stools and one smaller coordinating stool, each item standing 47 cm high, 38 cm wide, and 29 cm deep. These versatile items function well in a home today around a fireplace hearth as supplementary seating, beside a sofa as a small side table, or arranged in an entrance hallway for putting on shoes.

Country stools with rush seats were functional seating options popular in rural households throughout the 18th and 19th centuries, favoured for their durability and locally sourced timber and reed.

These stools typically feature timber frames made from native hardwoods such as oak, ash, or elm, paired with seats hand-woven from dried natural rush or cattail grasses.

Authentic examples exhibit hand-turned legs, pegged joinery, natural surface wear on the lower stretchers, and subtle hand-woven variations in the envelope-pattern rush.

Rush-seated stools function well as low accent seating, hearthside side-pieces, or flexible footstools, adding organic texture and warm timber tones to contemporary living spaces.

Keep rush seats lightly conditioned by misting occasionally with water to prevent brittleness, while cleaning the oak frame with a dry cloth and periodic applications of beeswax.
