Handmade Wooden Stool / Seat - Handcrafted from Oak
Four-legged oak stool with live edge
Robust oak stool could also be used as a side table / plant stand.
This stool has been skilfully crafted using only hand tools giving it a more traditional handmade appeal. The seat top is made from one single piece of oak, with a thickness of 35mm, giving the stool a very weighty, sturdy feel - sawn to size by hand, flattened and smoothed using only hand planes – and a spoke shave for the carved edge. The four leg holes were drilled using a traditional brace and bit – 1” diameter.
The legs are cut by hand from a single length of oak - tapered from square to octagonal using hand planes – chiselled and carved round at the top to create the tenons.
The legs are secured to the seat top using glue and oak wedges hammered home to provide the tightest fit which will last for years.
The stool is finished in two stages, firstly one coat of hard wax oil applied by brush - once dry then a second coat, this time of wax polish is applied using wire wool – to give a beautifully smooth sheen tactile finish.
This is a unique handmade piece so manufacturing tool marks may be visible.
Small Splits in the wood have been filled with resin to add strength to the piece.
