A Primitive 19th Century Wabi-Sabi Elm Side Table Display Stand or Stool

About the Item

This remarkable Primitive Elm Side Table showcases a wonderful patina and a rich tone of wood, developed over years of use. Originally crafted as a chopping block, it has gracefully transitioned into a stunning interior decor item. Its unusual height of 82 cm (32 inches) makes it perfect for showcasing plants or displaying sculptures, while its sculptural form allows it to stand out as a standalone piece, adding texture and character to any room. Crafted in France around 1900, this sculptural stand features a distinctive chopping block design, highlighting primitive construction techniques that reflect its rich history. With a generous top diameter of 39.5 cm (15.6 inches), it has a worn, uneven finish yet retains a relatively flat surface area. In good sturdy order, it exhibits characterful wear that enhances its antique allure. Versatile Use - Consider it not only as a side table but also as an occasional stool beside a sauna, blending functionality with aesthetic appeal. Embrace the charm of this one-of-a-kind elm stand, which embodies the Wabi-Sabi aesthetic—a celebration of imperfection and transience. Its unique characteristics invite contemplation and appreciation of the beauty found in the natural wear and history of the piece, making it a thoughtful addition to any space.
