A Fine and Rare Charles I Oak “Long” Stool

Being of a most unusual size – either a short bench or double-sized stool. The single-board top above side rails, all of which are decorated with carved and punch-decorated gadrooning. The front rail opens to reveal a concealed side hung drawer. The well-turned “sausage and reel” legs, which retain the original “toes”, are joined by square section stretchers.

Good colour, surface and originality.

English, circa 1630.
