AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Primitive folk-style wooden stool, stoki, which is one of the most versatile and simplest pieces of furniture in rural households A robust, hand-crafted piece made of solid wood (typically pine). Its structure is simple: it consists of a rectangular seat and two wide, stable legs, which are often held together by a connecting element (brace) for stability. There is a cut-out opening in the middle of the seat, which serves for easy portability - therefore it can be lifted and put away with one hand. Its surface is rustic, with traces of use, the patina or traces of tools that have developed over time, which gives it a unique character. Originally it was used as a milking stool, a kitchen auxiliary seat or for lower tasks (e.g. peeling vegetables). Today it is a popular vintage decorative element, it also stands its ground as a flower stand and a rustic accessory.Handcrafted from solid wood using traditional joinery techniques
• Exceptional character with visible age, wear, and original surface texture

• Versatile as a decorative object, low seating piece, or rustic accent.
