A compact Scandinavian beech stool from the 1950s, produced with the kind of restrained, purposeful design that made furniture from this period so consistently appealing. The square top and tapered legs are characteristic of mid-century Scandinavian workshop production — no applied decoration, honest material, built to last. In practice it functions as well as it looks: extra seating, a footrest beside a reading chair, a plant stand in a well-lit corner, or a low surface for a lamp or a few objects. The patina is genuine and entirely in keeping with a piece of this age and provenance. Minor scuffs on legs consistent with age — nothing else of note. Sturdy.
