A solid wood Brutalist Vintage milking stool dating to the 1960s–1970s, in brown, with a 50 cm height, 30 cm seat diameter and 40 cm base width, made in France and in good vintage condition.
Description from the seller
A beautifully atmospheric French milking stool, dating from the 1960s to 1970s.
This is a larger and more elegant model than the usual low farm stool, with a round seat raised on tall conical legs. The silhouette is simple but full of charm: three long splayed legs, a thick circular top, and fine incised line details running around both the seat edge and the legs. Those small decorative rings give the piece just enough refinement.
Made in solid wood, with a warm honey-brown tone and a rich, lived-in surface. The stool has that wonderful balance between rustic utility and decorative presence. It works beautifully as a small side table, plant stand, bedside accent, bathroom stool or sculptural country-modern object in an interior. A piece with warmth, height and character, very useful without ever looking too designed.
The stool is sturdy, stable and in very good vintage condition. The wood shows light signs of age and use, with small marks and surface wear consistent with time, adding to its patina rather than taking anything away.
Condition
Very good vintage condition. Stable and sturdy, with minor signs of age and use to the wood.
