Description
A charming antique Victorian footstool featuring a beautifully carved hardwood base and hand-worked floral needlepoint upholstery. The stool rests on graceful scrolling cabriole legs with a pierced apron and decorative upholstery tacks framing the richly colored wool needlepoint top.

The carved wooden frame shows lovely age and patina, while the needlepoint upholstery remains vibrant and visually striking. A wonderful piece that blends antique craftsmanship with timeless decorative appeal.
