Description :

A charming petite French footstool dating from the 19th century, featuring a beautifully decorative tapestry upholstered seat and a black-painted wooden base.

The tapestry depicts a delightful woodland scene centred around a squirrel amongst foliage, flowers and branches, set against a rich deep red background. The detailed design and warm palette give this small piece wonderful character and make it particularly appealing as a decorative accent.

The upholstered top has a gently shaped square form and is finished around the lower edge with traditional brass upholstery studs. It rests upon a black-painted wooden frame with four short, subtly curved legs, creating an elegant and well-balanced silhouette.

The stool is in good antique condition with wear consistent with its age and use. There is some wear and loss to the black-painted finish. The underside also shows visible traces and runs of black paint around the frame and leg joints, indicating that the painted finish may have been refreshed or reapplied at some point in its history. The tapestry also displays some age-related wear, all of which contributes to the authentic character and charm of the piece.

With its compact proportions, this attractive little stool would work beautifully as a traditional footstool, fireside accessory, or simply as a decorative object in a period or eclectic interior.
