This nineteenth-century William and Mary revival stool utilizes warm brown walnut with a polished finish and a dark charcoal linen top by Colfax and Fowler. The textile exhibits multi-coloured embroidery in red, pink, green, and gold tones depicting large floral blooms and leafy vines across the seat surface. Turned vertical members support the frame above a curved X-frame stretcher terminating in small ball feet, while decorative carved mouldings encircle the upper seat rail beneath the upholstery. Measuring 48 cm high, 46 cm wide, and 46 cm deep, the piece functions well at the foot of the bed or as an occasional seat in a living room.

FAQs

Originating in the late 17th century, William and Mary style furniture is characterised by Dutch and Flemish influences, featuring trumpet-turned legs, ball feet, and curved X-frame stretchers.

Craftsmen typically utilised solid walnut or beech for the turned frame, frequently incorporating hand-embroidered textile upholstery or needlework.

Look for distinct structural features such as turned legs, curved saltire stretchers, joinery beneath the upholstery frame, and natural patina on the walnut timber.

Place the stool near a fireplace alcove, beside an armchair, or at the foot of a bed to add historic texture and geometric contrast to the room.

Dust the timber legs with a dry cloth and apply beeswax periodically, while gently cleaning the textile top with a soft brush or low-suction vacuum attachment.
