Dealers Notes

I can arrange delivery to you, whether you are within the UK or require an international delivery service, please do get in touch…as a mainland UK guide, a delivery for something around the size of a chest of drawers within approx 150 miles will be £75 to you, but if you if you are in Scotland, Wales, Ireland or Cornwall please get in touch to confirm delivery costs!

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 19th century footstool in the English Country style comes from the Victorian era. It features a square upholstered top in sage green herringbone wool tweed, detailed with rows of brass studding along the corners and edges. The frame stands upon four dark wood turned mahogany legs with a bulbous, ring-turned profile. The construction combines hardwood, brass hardware, and Harris Tweed wool. Measuring 48 cm high, 79 cm wide, and 109 cm deep, the piece offers a generous low profile well-suited for a smaller living room. It functions practically as a footrest or occasional seat placed before a fireplace hearth, or positioned centrally within a traditional seating arrangement.

FAQs

Upholstered footstools gained widespread popularity during the nineteenth century as low seating or footrests designed to complement armchair arrangements in domestic living spaces.

Traditional footstools feature solid hardwood frames, such as oak, mahogany, or walnut, paired with natural fibre padding and durable woven upholstery fabrics like wool tweed or tapestry.

Authentic period frames typically feature hand-turned or carved wooden legs, traditional joinery methods such as mortise and tenon, and evidence of original webbed seat construction.

A tweed footstool functions effectively as a central coffee table alternative when topped with a wooden tray, or positioned beside an armchair to add texture and subtle colour.

Vacuum wool upholstery regularly using a soft brush attachment, treat spills immediately with a clean dry cloth, and wax turned wooden legs periodically to protect the timber finish.
