Vintage Victorian Buttoned Leather Footstool

This large Victorian footstool is generously proportioned, it serves equally well as a luxurious footrest, coffee table alternative, or statement centrepiece.

Newly upholstered in a thick quality leather and hand dyed using traditional technique to create a rich chestnut brown colour, selected for its natural character and depth of tone. The leather has been carefully worked to highlight the natural grain and subtle variations in colour, creating a warm and inviting patina. Deep-buttoned in the traditional Chesterfield style, the surface features a tactile, cushioned finish that enhances both comfort and elegance.

Framing the upholstered top is a brass studded trim, each stud individually hand-applied to ensure precision and authenticity—adding a refined, decorative detail that elevates the overall aesthetic.

Beneath, the stool is supported by solid mahogany turned legs. The rich tone of the polished mahogany complements the chestnut leather beautifully. Each leg is mounted on a caster wheel, allowing for ease of movement while preserving the period charm.

A rare piece that offers both durability and decorative appeal.
