Story behind the art:
This product was created in North Western India. Once the British removed its armed forces from the region in the late 40's, the indigenous people went back to the traditional crafts and furniture manufacturing that they had known for generations. Several hub cities of industry have flourished, creating numerous, sustainable, and stable jobs for the people of the surrounding villages, to augment the time in between harsh growing seasons.

Milking Bench/Side Table

crltntx from North Texas, Sep 4, 2009

Nice, sturdy side table (milking bench as it is called at O). Good size for small places. No assembly required. (Yea!) I use it for a side table when folks stop and visit. (Cats use it as a launch pad to terrorize one another when guests aren't using it.) Nice color, though lighter and more varied in grain than shown. A rustic look with a little bit of sheen. Had really sweet packing. Nicely wrapped with a pretty turquiose strand. Looked like a birthday gift. I can recommend this.

I would not have purchased these if seen in person

tennesseehilllbilly from Tennessee, Jul 24, 2009

I like the looks of these stools (I purchased two). They are rustic in appearance which is what I was looking for. However, the wood in both stools was split. This will probably not be a problem if I only use them as tables.
