Oak Stool with Woven Rush Top

Solid oak and hand-woven rush, this little stool carries the kind of quiet confidence that only comes with age. Stools like this were workhorses of the British home in the early twentieth century, found in kitchens, parlours, and workshops across the country. The oak has deepened to a rich honey-brown, and the woven seat shows the honest wear of a well-used life. A few minor scuffs and surface marks add to its story rather than detract from it. At home beside an armchair, tucked under a console, or pressed into service as a plant stand, it brings warmth and substance to any corner you give it.
