About the Item

This midcentury English leather pig footstool, crafted circa 1950, combines sculptural charm with practical function in the tradition of whimsical animal-form seating popularized by makers like Omersa and Liberty of London. Constructed from richly patinated brown leather and hand-stitched with care, it serves as a charming sculptural accent — playful, well-made, and full of character. The stylized form features floppy ears, a curled leather tail, and well-proportioned legs, all rendered with a gentle sense of humor. Measuring nearly 30 inches in length, it has presence enough to anchor a room without overwhelming it. The leather surface shows a deep, mottled finish with natural wear, adding warmth and visual texture. While primarily decorative, pieces like this were occasionally used as novelty footstools, particularly by English makers such as Liberty of London or Omersa, who produced similar animal-shaped forms in leather during the mid-20th century. This example may once have served such a purpose, though today it stands beautifully on its own. Equally suited to a library, nursery, or entryway, this leather pig sculpture brings a dose of British wit to interiors — a tactile and collectible object that invites both conversation and affection.
