An always popular vintage French traditional wooden milking stool with bobbin style braced legs. We call these DT stools; D for the seat and T for the brace. This one has had a paint job at some point (they are usually in varnished wood), painted black with white highlights. A great pot stand for a rustic location. This one is in fair condition with some signs of age as detailed below.

Condition: in vintage condition with signs of previous use, wear and scratches, these stools are initially made without the use of glue or nails and rely on good joints only, usually over the years the joints wear a little, the joints on this one will move if pulled – a little glue would stiffen it up further but it is structurally stable as is, the legs have started to protrude through the seat a little, a good example of these very popular stools with an updated paint job, please see all pictures
