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.

Victorian low footstools, often designed as fender stools to sit alongside hearths, gained popularity during the nineteenth century to provide comfortable seating or foot support near the fireplace.

These footstools were typically crafted from solid walnut or mahogany, featuring hand-carved details such as cabriole legs and shell motifs, topped with hand-stitched needlepoint or tapestry upholstery.

Look for natural ageing to the timber, hand-carved joinery details, traditional webbing padding, and hand-stitched floral wool needlework.

Place the low stool in front of a fireplace hearth, position it beneath a low coffee table, or use it as an accent piece at the base of a sofa.

Clean wood surfaces with a soft cloth and natural wax polish, while vacuuming the delicate textile upholstery gently on a low setting using a soft brush attachment.
