17th Century Style 1940s Oak Joint Stool

17th Century Style 1940s Oak Joint Stool

An extraordinarily good example, given that it was made during the constrained circumstances of the 1940s, in the manner of the 17thC, peg-jointed throughout and, to all outward appearances, the work of a Victorian craftsman, so it's a revelation to discover the CC41 mark underneath and to wonder at the quality of love & skill that went into its manufacture in such lean times, with figured two-piece top, classically plain moulded edges, over a nicely-carved floral frieze, on blocked & turned baluster supports, united by plain stretchers with rounded tops, this lovely oak joint stool will charm in the most elegant of homes, whether period-furnished or more contemporary in style, fully-deserving of the appreciative attention it will undoubtedly attract.

Width of Top 45.25cm x Depth 29.25cm (17.75" x 11.5") & Height 47cm (18.5")

NB: The dimensions were measured in centimetres and converted to the approximate equivalent in inches.

This piece was made in the 1940s, so you may expect the mature character & patina of age, together with wear & tear commensurate with normal use, including a light mark to the top of one leg but, otherwise, it's in good, clean & sound condition and ready to be used in your home.
