A charming, rustic, low level pine foot stool with an s-shaped handgrip slot. Wooden pegged, and with a cross-stretcher between its uprights, it has a strong naive aesthetic. It's not strong enough to stand on, but fine for propping your feet upon when enjoying a snooze or it could be used as a very low-level side table.
