Decorative wooden thing (Walkley S6)
Hand carved wooden thing that I think originally had a notepad attached. The main piece is about 1cm thick.

stool (backless chair) (Slack Lane DE22)

A potential up-cycling project for someone: Wooden stool - was once a chair, but not in the past 50 or so years. The seat has been covered with sticky back plastic, but I'm sure that could be removed. It is surprisingly comfortable to sit on - we used it as a piano stool for years.
