This walnut footstool dates from around 1930 and follows the Chippendale revival style. The timber displays a warm brown finish with a rich patina, minor surface marks, and fine carving on the cabriole legs, featuring shell motifs on the knees and scroll feet. The rectangular seat is upholstered in a cream and yellow floral striped fabric, finished with a textured tassel fringe trim around the edge. The upholstery shows light wear and marking, while the frame remains in good sound condition overall with a maker's plaque fitted beneath. Measuring 67 cm length by 38 cm width by 46 cm height, this compact piece serves well in a home today placed at the end of a sofa or before an armchair as a functional footrest or extra seating. The traditional English country house design integrates easily into classic or period-inspired living spaces.

FAQs

A Queen Anne style footstool typically features cabriole legs, pad feet, and understated carving on the knees, popularised during the 18th century and recreated throughout the early 20th century.

These pieces were constructed using solid walnut or walnut-veneered timber frames, traditional webbing, coil springs, natural hair padding, and woven damask or brocade textiles.

Authentic revival pieces feature hand-carved details on the timber legs, pegged corner joinery beneath the frame, natural grain variation, and traditional upholstery stitching along the underside.

Position the footstool alongside a neutral armchair or near a fireplace hearth to introduce warm timber tones, rich texture, and classical balance to modern living spaces.

Dust the timber frame regularly with a microfibre cloth, apply beeswax to preserve the wood finish, and clean the upholstery fabric using a soft brush vacuum attachment to prevent dust accumulation.
