Description

A charming and decorative pair of Victorian walnut circular footstools, dating to circa 1860, beautifully made and of elegant proportions.

Each stool is crafted in richly figured walnut with finely executed inlaid geometric banding to the lower frieze, adding a refined decorative detail that elevates these beyond the ordinary. Raised on neat ceramic feet, the stools have a pleasing low profile and attractive classical form.

The upholstered tops are covered in what appears to be an older floral needlework/tapestry fabric, lending warmth and character, with a softly timeworn country house aesthetic. Whether retained as they are for a relaxed traditional look or reupholstered to suit a new interior scheme, they offer excellent versatility.

Wonderfully useful decorative pieces, ideal as footstools, fireside stools, dressing room seating, or even as occasional accent pieces in a sitting room or bedroom.
