About the Item

This pair of Maison Jansen attributed mahogany French Directoire footstools, circa 1960s, captures the timeless elegance and neoclassical refinement that the renowned Parisian design firm was celebrated for. Crafted from rich mahogany, these stools feature gracefully curved X-form bases, reminiscent of the Directoire period’s restrained yet sophisticated aesthetic. The frames are accented by round finials and rosette medallions, showcasing an attention to detail that reflects Jansen’s reputation for merging classical inspiration with modern craftsmanship. Each stool retains its original upholstered cushion, dressed in a cheerful golden-yellow fabric with floral damask motifs, trimmed with coordinating tassels that add a touch of opulence. The cushioned tops provide both comfort and decorative appeal, making them versatile pieces that can function as footrests, vanity stools, or occasional seating. Maison Jansen, established in 1880, became synonymous with French luxury interiors, blending historic styles with 20th-century innovation. These footstools embody that legacy, offering collectors and designers an opportunity to bring a piece of mid-20th-century French decorative history into their interiors. Elegant, functional, and exquisitely detailed, they serve as a refined accent for both traditional and contemporary settings.
