Petite Antique Needlepoint Footstool
Overview:
This delightful footstool is a fine example of traditional craftsmanship, combining rich woodwork with a classic floral needlepoint tapestry. Compact in size but rich in character, it’s a lovely accent piece for vintage or romantic interiors.
Top Upholstery:
• Textile: Hand-stitched needlepoint upholstery, showcasing a central floral motif in warm, muted tones—ivory, rose, sage, mustard, and navy.
• Design: A traditional bouquet with symmetrical elements, possibly inspired by French Aubusson or Victorian English patterns. The tapestry features scrolling foliage and florals against a deep navy border for striking contrast.
• Condition: Aged with minor wear that enhances its authentic vintage charm.
Structure & Legs:
• Wood: Solid hardwood legs in a dark, rich finish—possibly mahogany or walnut.
• Shape: Straight square legs taper slightly into a blocky foot, giving it a grounded and sturdy appearance.
• Construction: The underside is finished with a navy-blue fabric backing and neatly tacked with upholstery nails, reinforcing the period detail.
Dimensions & Use:
• Petite and low-profile, ideal as a footstool, kneeling bench, or decorative perch for books or a plant.
• Perfect for placement beside a fireside chair, at the foot of a bed, or layered in an antique vignette.
Style Notes:
This footstool beautifully bridges Victorian or Edwardian elegance with cottagecore or grandmillennial style. It offers soft, romantic tones with a hint of rustic sophistication—perfect for vintage lovers and collectors alike
