We are always getting asked for pairs of these always popular vintage French traditional wooden milking stool with bobbin style legs. Only once before have we ever had four closely matching ones come through at the same time. These four stools have been together since the 1960’s in one household and used as plant stands. These are original bobbin stools not the 1970’s repro versions. We call these D stools because of the shape of the seat. These ones have some signs of previous use with some signs of age and quirks as detailed below.
PRICED INDIVIDUALLY – PRICE IS FOR ONE STOOL – but four available at time of listing – Postage discounts for multiple item purchases will be automatically applied at checkout.

Condition: in vintage condition with signs of previous use, light wear and scratches, these stools are made without the use of glue or nails and rely on good joints only, usually over the years the joints wear and loosen a little and some of the joints on these have loosened over the years meaning some of the legs move in their holes-if forced, in some places nails have been added and there is some wear around the area of some where the leg enters the stool, some legs are poking through the seat a little as pictured, used as plant stands in the past but these have been waxed and polished over the years and well looked after, given the few loose legs we would suggest for use as static plant standa as is, in their retirement years or a little glue / tack could be added to make them good for milking, otherwise good examples of these very popular, strong and stable and all ready for work, please see all pictures
