Summary
A mid 20th century child's wooden school chair. Its two back legs are squared and arch up to form the back rest supports, with rounded tops. Between these are three thick wooden back rests. The front two legs are round with a rounded ball at the bottom. The seat is smooth with a curved indent towards the back and is screwed into place. Underneath the seat, there are two stretchers at either side of the chair, and one stretcher at the front and one at the back.
