A Pair of Carved Rosewood Footstalls

18th century
Description

An Unusual Pair of “Jacobethan” Carved Stools

Carved from rosewood, the stools on incurved platform bases dressed with carved pearls and supported on ball & claw feet fitted with hidden castors, the platforms centred with a turned finial, S-scrolled legs issuing from the corners supporting the seats within its egg-and-dart moulding, with scrolling carved ornaments to all sides.

English, circa 1835

The “Jacobethan” style, a term coined by John Betjemann, was a decorative arts trend starting in the 1820s which combined various design sources from Jacobean, Elizabethan and Stuart periods to inform contemporary 19th century furniture. It continued to flourish throughout the 1830s and 1840s, as particularly evident in some Gothic-inspired furniture by Pugin for the Palace of Westminster.

Currently in unrestored original condition, please contact us for further information.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Victorian footstools were crafted as functional and decorative accoutrements for nineteenth-century drawing rooms, designed to elevate feet off cold floors while complementing larger upholstered seating.

Cabinetmakers primarily utilised dense hardwoods such as rosewood, mahogany, or walnut, frequently incorporating hand-carved supports, turned central columns, brass castors, and wool or silk tapestry upholstery.

Authentic period pieces feature rich, dark grain patterning characteristic of Dalbergia species, hand-cut joinery, period-correct brass or wooden castors, and hand-carved decorative motifs rather than machine-moulded details.

Position the pair symmetrically in front of a contemporary sofa or on either side of a fireplace hearth to provide textural contrast and historic character within modern or transitional spaces.

Dust the carved woodwork regularly with a soft, dry cloth and apply beeswax periodically to nourish the timber, while vacuuming the upholstery gently using a soft brush attachment to prevent dust accumulation.
