Belgian Needlepoint Footstool

A petite Belgian footstool with floral needlepoint upholstery, carved wood frame and wonderfully aged brass nailhead trim.

Measurements

• Approximately 12" W × 8" H

Why I Love It

• Stamped “Made in Belgium” underneath
• Floral needlepoint top in beautifully muted shades of cream, blush, lavender, ochre and green
• Carved wood frame with gently curved legs
• A row of aged brass nailheads finishes the upholstered edge
• Small enough to use as a decorative riser as well as a traditional footstool
• Exactly the sort of little old-world piece that adds softness alongside books, paintings and darker woods

Condition

• Good vintage condition with age-related wear
• Wood has scratches, finish variation and small areas of wear
• Nailheads show oxidation/patina
• Needlepoint has general age and surface wear
• Some separation/opening is visible at the frame joints from underneath; please review photos
• Retains its Made in Belgium stamp
