Condition: in vintage condition with signs of previous use, wear and scratches, varnish very worn from use as a plant pot stand, 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 do have some play but it is structurally stable when used as a static stand, the legs are starting to poke up through the seat a little, the joints could be strenbgthened with a little wood glue but it is not necessary currently, the whole stool is still strong and stable and could be sat on but we would suggest not for heavy use as a stool for people now in its retirement years, a fair example of these very popular stools, please see all pictures
