About the Item
Crafted in England around 1920, this rectangular oak stool showcases the enduring appeal of traditional joinery and decorative carving. The hand-caned seat rests atop a substantial oak frame, its warm tone enhanced by years of patina. Four boldly turned legs are connected by distinctive barley twist stretchers on all sides—an ornamental feature that also adds notable structural integrity. The legs terminate in squared blocks on bun feet that lend a balanced presence to the design.
The overall profile evokes the late 17th-century William and Mary style, which enjoyed a revival in the early 20th century, particularly in English domestic furniture. The cane seat has been tightly woven and presents well, providing both visual lightness and practical comfort. The oak frame displays natural grain and wear consistent with age, contributing to its authenticity and character.
Well-proportioned and highly versatile, this piece may serve as a low occasional seat, footstool, or decorative accent in an entryway or living area. Its craftsmanship and scale make it an excellent choice for traditional or eclectic interiors alike.

Modular Typ 505 lamp by Curt Fischer for Midgard, 1960s
By Curt Fischer, Midgard
Located in EVERDINGEN, NL
A TYP 505 wall mounted lamp, based on the iconic TYP 113. This modular lamp was produced with 3 different arm lengths, 3 types of (rotating) lampshades and a choice in type of joints.
The lamp is in good condition, rewired and all parts working and rotating. The original lightswitch is also still present and working.
Curt Fischer is well known for his innovative designs and still regarded as one of the greatest 20th-century inventors. At the time, just after WW1, recovering from the war, people worked long hours until late in the evening.
