Looks like a chair back; add four beech legs with three stretchers, eight beech back spindles and a cleft oak splat, elm seat and you have a windsor chair.

forgot the seat

Maybe. The scale didn't look quite right though, too small.

 

What's the splat?

[sime42]

Got it, the central bit of the chair back. Why cleft oak though?

6 spindles turned, repairs to an existing chair that somehow lost the top half.

Tradition, most of the bits were made in the woods with hand tools and then assembled in a workshop.
