The term 'sitting place' can refer to two different pieces of furniture: a CHAIR and a STOOP. A CHAIR is a piece of furniture with a back and four legs, designed for one person to sit on. It is usually made of wood or metal and upholstered with fabric or leather. A STOOP is a small platform or step that is used as a seat, typically found outside a house or building. It is usually made of stone, brick, or concrete.
