Description
A wonderfully rustic and characterful early 18th Century English oak settle, circa 1710, retaining a beautiful time-worn surface and rich natural patina.
Of traditional country design, featuring a four-panelled oak back with a gently shaped top rail, attractive shaped arms supported by turned uprights, and a wonderfully worn plank seat displaying centuries of use and character.
Raised on substantial square supports joined by low stretchers and resting on distinctive sledge feet, giving the settle a particularly pleasing, sturdy and practical appearance.
The oak has acquired a lovely mellow colour, with variations in tone, old marks, wear and imperfections throughout, all contributing to its wonderfully authentic rustic charm.
A delightful piece of early English country furniture, full of history and individuality. Its relatively compact proportions make it particularly versatile, ideal for a country kitchen, entrance hall, boot room or beside a farmhouse dining table.
Condition: In rustic, time-worn condition with age-related wear, marks and surface irregularities, adding to its attractive country-house character.
A highly decorative and appealing example of early 18th Century vernacular furniture, with the simplicity, honesty and character that make these early oak pieces so desirable.
