Stool

Add to album

This stool dates from the 19th century. It is made from reused timber. The three legs are forced into the holes in the seat and a tight fit achieved using small pieces of rag.

Screws hold parts of the seat together although the form of the seat was probably dictated by the shape of the object from which the timber came.
