19th C Oak Stool with Leather Strap Top all handmade, Arts & Crafts period
Located in Lincoln, Lincolnshire
This is a good handmade stool with a well turned solid oak frame and a woven leather strap top, all dating to the Arts & Crafts period of the late 19th century.
The stool is made of solid oak. The frame joints into four legs with ring turned detail and with four jointed rectangular cross stretchers between the legs, making this a very strong construction. The seat top is made of interwoven reddish-brown leather straps which sit on fabric webbing below the leather and give additional support to the seat. The seat is finished off with four narrow leather strips that run along the lower seat edge, one on each side, that are secured by brass nail studs.
The stool has developed a good patina from age and use and the reddish-brown leather has a deep natural mature shine, only achieved by repeated polishing and use over the years.
This piece is made in the 17th century Jacobean style but we date the stool to the late 19th century, made in the English Arts & Crafts period of the late 19th century.
Please note the images are taken both indoors and outdoors in different light conditions.

Leather covers on English seating dates back to the middle ages and the 16th century. Mature leather seats can be as tough and polished as the wood of the frame itself. During the reign of Elizabeth 1st...

Pair of English 19th Century Ebonized Bobbin Stools with Custom Linen Upholstery
Located in Atlanta, GA
This pair of 19th-century English stools combines classic craftsmanship with updated upholstery, offering both character and versatility. The ebonized wood frames highlight the sculptural beauty of bobbin-turned legs, a design element that adds a rhythmic elegance to their profile. The stretchers reinforce the structure, ensuring both visual balance and lasting durability.
The seats have been reupholstered in custom linen, a natural fabric chosen for its elegant texture and subtle warmth. A row of nailhead trim outlines the perimeter, providing a tailored finish that enhances the contrast between the dark frame and the soft, neutral-toned seat. This combination of intricate woodwork and fresh upholstery allows the stools to bridge traditional and contemporary aesthetics with ease.
These stools make an excellent addition to a variety of interiors. Use them in a living room as stylish extra seating, tuck them under a console for a functional yet decorative touch, or place them at the foot of a bed to introduce a sense of symmetry. Their compact form allows them to be easily moved from one space to another, offering both charm and practicality. Whether incorporated into a classic setting or paired with modern furnishings for a collected look, this pair of English bobbin stools...
