<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="4"><tr><td><em> </em></td></tr><tr> <td width="100%"> Victorian openwork iron footstool with figural hand stiched needlepoint cover. Both stool and tapestry originally made in the 1800's, but possibly didn't start out together.<BR>Measurements: 14 width 10 1/2 depth X 8 1/2 inches height.<BR>The skeleton of the stool is made of heavy old iron in a high Victorian scrolling openwork pattern. Iron is painted gold.<BR>The stool is upholstered with a soft grey-pink hand-stitched needlepoint tapestry, the center depicting a Victorian woman holding a parason, dressed in a wonderfully patterned dress. Fabulous fine detail to the flowers and hearts and shades and tones that constitute the clothing and parasol.<BR>There is some roughness of the wool around the figure, seen if you look closely, but does not bother/detract from the pretty hand work.<BR>Please note: this item is very heavy. </td></tr><tr> <td> </td></tr><tr> <td>Reference #: 2408</td></tr><tr><td>Condition:See Description</td></tr><tr><td>Year:See Description</td></tr><tr><td>Title:Victorian openwork FOOT STOOL needlepoint la</td></tr><tr><td>Location:Boca Raton</td></tr></table>
