The rectangular footstool features an intricately carved giltwood frame with ornate detailing that showcases the superior craftsmanship of its era. The brick colored Bole pops out from behind the gold in worn edges and shows its age and quality of the gilding. The apron on the short side of the frame is adorned with lavish floral and scroll motifs, while the long side showcases a shell motif. The cabriole legs, embellished with acanthus leaves, contribute to the stool's graceful appearance. It stands on scroll feet with an X-base stretcher for added stability.

The stool is upholstered in luxurious eggshell linen chenille fabric, with a double welt, that beautifully complements the gilded wood with a neutral off-white hue. This specially selected fabric is high-performance, incorporating Crypton technology, which means you don’t have to worry about food stains or dirt on a white surface. Cleaning is simple; just use soap and water to keep it looking new. The seat keeps it originally filled horsehair and springs, and reinforced with additional padding for added comfort, ensuring a firm yet graceful seating experience. The underside has been covered with a fresh dust cover in black.

A Régence tabouret is perfect for adding historical charm and elegance to any room. Its classic design and luxurious detailing make it a versatile piece that blends seamlessly with both traditional and contemporary interiors. This 19th-century French footstool is a testament to the enduring appeal of antique French furniture, offering both beauty and comfort. See less
