A trio of dark-stained wooden furniture items comprising a revivalist armchair, a matching rectangular stool, and a vernacular three-legged stool. The armchair is constructed in an early 20th-century style inspired by 17th-century Cromwellian? designs, featuring barley-twist carved front legs and arm supports joined by a low H-stretcher. The back is formed by a brown leatherette? sling panel, with a padded seat of the same material, both secured with large-headed decorative brass? studs. The matching rectangular stool follows a similar construction with turned legs and studded upholstery. The third item is a primitive vernacular milking? stool featuring a thick, irregular slab seat, likely elm?, supported by three splayed and tapered legs. The legs are secured through the seat via round mortise and tenon joints, visible as three circular end-grain plugs on the upper surface. The armchair arms terminate in simple rounded grips and show significant surface wear.
