Stool (2) - Oak - Pair of antique benches

Pair of antique oak stools / benches – 18th century – rustic folk furniture Beautiful and highly characterful pair of antique oak stools / small benches, dating from the 18th century. Both pieces are made of solid oak and feature a simple, robust construction typical of early European rural and vernacular furniture. The thick rectangular seats are supported by four splayed legs, reinforced by wooden stretchers. Particularly attractive are the clearly visible traditional joints, with the squared ends of the legs passing through the seats. The irregularities in the wood, extensive natural wear and deeply developed patina give both stools a particularly authentic and decorative appearance. The surfaces show numerous traces of their long history, including old scratches, dents, wear, colour variations and irregularities in the timber. These have deliberately not been restored or removed and form an essential part of the character of these pieces. Both stools remain decorative and display beautifully together. They can be used as low stools, small benches, side tables or simply as authentic decorative objects in a rustic, Wabi-Sabi, country or eclectic interior. Period: 18th century Material: solid oak Style: rustic / vernacular / folk furniture Number: 2 Condition: antique condition with extensive age-related wear and a beautiful old patina The stools have not been recently restored and retain their aged appearance. The photographs form an integral part of the description. Please examine them carefully for the condition, construction and traces of age.
