Having an ovolo-moulded top, the rails incised-carved with curves and small crescents, and highlighted with punched dots, on parallel-baluster over ball-turned legs, joined all round by plain stretchers, on turned feet, 48.5cm wide x 29.5cm deep x 58cm high, (19in wide x 11 1/2in deep x 22 1/2in high)

Literature:
See Tobias Jellinek, Early British Chairs and Seats 1500 to 1700 (2009), p. 235, pl. 308, for a very similar joint stool, almost certainly from the same workshop.
