This large nineteenth-century French stool stands low to the floor on short turned wooden legs finished with small metal castors. The deep green velvet upholstery covers the entire square top and wraps down the low sides, held in place by a continuous border of small brass studs. Light wear marks show on the velvet surface, and the wood of the legs has a warm brown polished finish. Measuring 36 cm high, 89 cm wide and 72 cm deep, the piece functions well in a living room as a footstool, extra low seating, or as a side table with a tray placed on top.

Popularised in 19th-century European interiors, large low upholstered stools were designed as accent pieces in drawing rooms and dressing areas, frequently constructed with turned timber legs and brass castors for flexibility.

Period footstools were built using solid hardwood frames, hand-strung webbed or spring seats, turned timber legs fitted with brass castors, and fixed fabric upholstery finished with brass studwork.

Authentic period footstools display hand-turned wood legs with natural wear, original brass castors, solid timber joinery visible underneath, and patinated frame timbering.

A large upholstered stool works as a central coffee table substitute when paired with a flat serving tray, or positioned at the end of a bed to provide structured low seating.

Gently vacuum velvet upholstery using a soft brush attachment, position the item away from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading, and apply natural beeswax polish to the exposed timber legs.
