Hand-carved Swedish Folk Stool

Hand-carved Swedish Folk Stool

SWEDEN
Early 20th century
Oak
22″ wide x 14 1/2″ deep x 28″ high

This charming side chair with its folk carvings of acorns and oak leaves makes a perfect perch for a small room–a guest bathroom, a foyer. Something in the appearance–the shallowness of the seat, the flared legs, the rectangular profile, the patina–reminds us of Japanese design.
