Prayer Stool, Carriage Footrest, Floral Embroidery, Nailhead Trim,
Approx. 8 1/2" D,
England,
Likely mid to late 1800s, RARE

ondition commensurate with age. Lots of wear to embroidered top and two of the bottom "legs" must have been replaced at some point. There are the remains of some beaded detail on embroidered top. This may have been recovered at some point and then that fabric was removed to reveal the embroidery underneath??
Please see photos.
This is so charming. The perfect addition to your English farmhouse!
