"THE EARLY BRITISH STOOL"
The English (and European) tradition of the stool is a long one – from peasant to nobility.
Chairs, even until the very late 17th century, were reserved for the head of household – or for Royalty.
There were strict rules in Court regarding seating, even on stools.

and the lost-and-found evolultion of the "stool" -
the OLDEST piece of furniture in the WORLD..

About Millicent Creech/ Additional Gallery Services
M. Ford Creech Antiques specializes in 17th, 18th and early 19th century furniture and accessories.
Each piece is carefully selected in regard to quality, condition and uniqueness. Although our
concentration is predominately British, we also offer a small selection of Continental antique
furniture.
The decorative arts include ceramics (early Chinese, Chinese esport, early continental and English to 1800);
a good selection of 17th - early 19th British silver, including flatware, hollowware and accessories;
and a small collectin of late 19th / early 20th century tribal rugs.
We also offer paintings by a changing eclectic mix of American and European listed artists,
with emphasis on early 20th century American East and West Coast Painters.
