The folding stool is a common type of extra chair. We picked up our stool from a load of building materials on the way to the dump. The shape is 17th-17th century, but this particular example was probably made as late as the early 20th century. Our original pallet was painted white (about 2% green umber), but the original fabric was replaced. It is likely that the stool was originally covered with a single-colored marquis fabric, or with an unbleached linen fabric, as in the picture.
