AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Two highly decorative vintage school stools. These stools are in good condition and date from the 1960s or 1970s. The blue one is probably a bit younger than the gray. The (not identical) stools are about 46 cm high and the seat has a diameter of around 35 cm. The gray stool weighs about 3 kg, the blue one about 4 kg.

The stools have steel legs with a seat made of solid beech plywood, designed for school furniture, so especially sturdy and durable! The seats clearly show signs of frequent use by children. These are not just seat marks. All sorts of scratches and wear marks indicate that the stools have been used in many different ways. The blue stool’s seat is attached to the frame from the top with four screws, while the gray stool’s seat is fastened from the bottom, so you don’t see screws in the seat. Both stools are still 100% stable.

Although the finish on the legs is still good, you can see various signs of use there as well (see photos). Due to the sturdy material, and also due to the construction, these stools are extremely sturdy and stable, and can still bear heavy loads.

Although the stools are not identical, they are the same size. They are stackable and fit well together.

So the stools are in good condition, with logical signs of use from the thousands of children who sat and stood on them. They fit very well in any interior. Very functional and attractively nostalgic furniture!

Besides as seating, these stools also work well as pedestal stands for artwork or even as side tables (see photos). For the latter, the blue stool is particularly suitable because it has a 100% flat top. The gray stool has a very slight contour in the seat for more comfort.

The stools are carefully packaged and shipped insured.

Seller's Story

I sell antique and vintage products. The items I sell are very diverse in nature; from lamps to side tables, from phones to wooden sculptures, from vintage kitchen equipment to Art Deco and Art Nouveau coat racks, and everything in between. The things I buy are usually objects that I personally like and that are of high quality. It sometimes takes effort to part with them! My expertise lies primarily in products from the 20th century. I ship in used boxes combined with paper filler material. The boxes are sturdy. Usually made of double-wall cardboard. I ship, unless otherwise agreed, always within two days of purchase. I attach great importance to friendly, decent and reliable contact with my buyers.
