ABOUT PRODUCTID 16336
This Swedish rural stool from the 1950s is crafted entirely from solid wood using traditional joinery, evident in the pegged, rectangular seat with softly rounded corners and the absence of any metal elements. The top is supported by four slightly splayed, cylindrical legs displaying visible traces of use—worn areas, discoloration, and a distinctive, deep brown tone. The surface is matte and rough with pronounced grain, complemented by remnants of mint-green paint on the apron and legs, partially worn away to reveal the natural wood beneath. Exposed wood, nicks, and minor cracks emphasize the hand-made origin, while subtle color variances and visible plug ends mark genuine, artisanal construction.The form quietly evokes a narrative of rural daily life and connection to traditional Scandinavian craft. The raw texture and irregular finish conjure associations with northern landscapes and the simplicity of timeworn materials. The juxtaposition of dark wood and pastel green suggests a gentle, nature-inspired elegance, with traces of long use mapping a personal, lived-in history onto the piece.The stool would work well as a low seat in a hallway, a plant stand, or a rustic alternative to a classic side table. It can be combined with linen, raw cotton, or wool textiles, as well as unglazed ceramics and pale woods. Interiors in white, greys, or subdued pastels will highlight its rustic character. Pairing it with simple shapes and tactile, natural fabrics will further emphasize its authentic Scandinavian provenance.
