Dealers Notes

Based in Uppingham, Rutland…having been in the business for 25 years focusing on mostly French and English decorative antiques and interiors from the 18th to the early 20th century, hopefully a collection you will enjoy browsing and hopefully re home some of my finds!

Viewing here in Uppingham is very welcome in my spacious barn studio but also I have a showroom based within the Uppingham Antiques Centre, which is well worth a visit and have a good lunch in town too!

Any queries about anything you have seen or about delivery, don't hesitate to get in touch.

This nineteenth-century English Country House style centre footstool stands on four solid mahogany square legs and measures 41 cm high, 63 cm wide, and 125 cm deep. The oblong frame supports a newly upholstered padded top covered in a muted blue woven fabric with dark threading. A row of brass studs traces the lower perimeter of the cushion above the wooden uprights. In a modern interior, this piece serves as a generous footrest at the foot of a bed or functions as extra seating in a living room. The straightforward rectangular proportions and restrained woodwork suit traditional and relaxed domestic spaces alike, providing a functional surface that integrates easily with existing furniture arrangements.

A centre footstool, functioning similarly to a traditional ottoman, originated as a central resting surface in living rooms and drawing rooms. Over time, these pieces evolved to serve dual functions as both footrests and low central tables.

Traditional footstools feature solid timber frames, such as oak, beech, or mahogany, paired with padded upholstery held in place by interior webbing. Outer fabrics range from textured woven wools and linens to velvets, frequently detailed with brass studding or braid.

High-quality timber construction is indicated by a solid wood frame with jointed construction, sturdy legs, and hand-tacked upholstery details. Inspecting the underside reveals woven support webbing rather than modern stapled composites.

A large rectangular footstool functions as a coffee table alternative when topped with a wooden or metal tray for drinks and decorative items. Positioned central to seating arrangements, it provides soft lines, texture, and versatile extra seating.

Regular gentle vacuuming with a soft brush attachment prevents dust build-up within woven fibres. Liquid spills should be blotted immediately using a clean, dry cloth, while exposed timber legs require occasional wiping with dedicated furniture wax.
