Description:
Here is a fine quality matched pair of antique English Georgian style mahogany dressing / foot stools, constructed during the late Victorian period, circa 1880, with equal proportions, which have been newly upholstered to a professional standard, in excellent condition. The stools have been newly upholstered in top quality taupe colour structured cotton, with a hessian underside. The stools are near identical; with one bearing a stamp titled “Loxton” to the frame under the drop-in seats. The seats themselves are firm, but very comfortable to sit on. One stool features a subtly moulded frame with moulded corners to the legs, while the other stool comprises a straight frame raised on undulating moulded legs with reeded corners. The stools feature ‘H’ stretchers for additional strength. Ideal for use as footstools, in the living room or as dressing stools in the bedroom.
These stools feature a rich, warm mahogany colour. They have a fantastic colour and patination; this can only be achieved through age and years of care and cleaning they have received.
The Victorian style stools would look superb in a variety of rooms from the bedroom to living room. They would certainly grace any home and are a great investment as they are extremely functional. So, don’t miss out on your chance to own a lovely piece of furniture.
