About the Item
This beautiful footstool is in great condition with hand embroidery and original beautiful gold leaf gilt work over hand carvings. Circa 1880.
Footstools have evolved throughout history starting in ancient Egypt, where it was utilized to ascend chairs perched high off the ground. It was also used to rest a person's feet when he or she was seated. In the 18th century a low footstool, such as this, was placed in front of the fireplace, for the family members to place their feet and warm them up. Footstools where generally interchangeable in everyday life from the 17th through the early 19th century.
