Description

These two pint-sized antique Windsor-style hoop-back children's chairs are the real deal, featuring bentwood arched crest rails, turned spindle backs, solid wood plank seats, and turned stretcher bases that have been lovingly -- or desperately -- reinforced with twisted wire cross-bracing to keep the whole gang together. The finish is gloriously worn, with peeling shellac, paint losses, and darkened patina that only decades of tiny bottoms can produce, all resting on rubber-tipped feet someone added for good measure. Both chairs show honest age-related wear including scratches, splits at seat edges, and assorted finish flaking that collectors of primitive Americana will find irresistible rather than alarming. These likely date to the late 19th to early 20th century and are sized perfectly for display, a farmhouse vignette, or the world's most charming doll corner. This sweet little primitive three-legged stool features a thick, solid round top with beautiful wood grain, supported by three turned and slightly splayed legs with decorative bobbin-style turnings. The wood is a warm honey-brown tone, lighter and cleaner than the chairs, suggesting it may be a later companion piece rather than a matched original, but it pairs beautifully and completes the set with undeniable rustic charm.
