AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Authentic wooden farmer's stool, hand-crafted bench entirely by hand according to traditional rural techniques. The object features a simple yet extremely solid construction, typical of domestic peasant production: the seating surface is fitted between two shaped side panels, joined by wooden elements and supported by four sturdy legs. Interesting is the presence of nails visible along the edges, which besides giving a refined decorative effect, underline the authentic and artisan character of the piece. The joints and construction details highlight manual workmanship free from industrial standards. The surface shows a natural patina well preserved, with signs of use and wear consistent with its age, testifying to its authenticity and original use.

In addition to its original function, this object today lends itself to various uses: it can be used as a small stool, decorative element, base for objects or plants, but also as a practical footrest, thanks to its modest height and the very stable structure.
