FAQs

Footstools have been utilised in European interiors for centuries, evolving from functional floor-level seats to decorative low furniture pieces that complemented traditional upholstery styles during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

These pieces typically feature a solid timber frame, such as walnut or beech, joined with traditional joinery techniques, and are upholstered in hand-stitched leather secured with decorative brass tacks over natural stuffing materials.

Authenticity is identified through hand-turned wooden legs showing natural oxidisation, hand-forged or brass-headed tacking, traditional horsehair or organic stuffing, and genuine patina on the leather surface resulting from age and use.

An antique footstool works well as a tactile coffee table alternative topped with a tray, or placed beside a modern sofa to introduce warmth, historical contrast, and rich texture into a minimalist or eclectic scheme.

Preserve antique leather by keeping it out of direct sunlight, avoiding excessive heat sources, and periodically applying a specialised leather balm or wax to maintain suppleness and prevent cracking.
