Traditional Shetland Creepie

Ash Creepie

Oak Creepie

 

In many a Shetland croft house in days gone by you would have found a "creepie" or small wooden stool. Light and easily portable it would have been moved around to provide a seat when doing a variety of tasks, anything from milking the cow to making a kishie (straw basket). They would have been made from whatever wood was available at the time, often driftwood.

We have designed a creepie as shown which is now available for sale. It's design is in keeping with the traditional creepies both in shape and simplicity.

Approximate size: Seat 32cm X 17cm, 24cm high.

Creepies are available in the following prices:

Stained Pine £75, Ash £81 and Oak £87.

(Prices include VAT at 17.5%)

Creepies shown are from top to bottom: Ash, Oak and Stained Pine.
