About the Item

A charming mid-20th century Danish oak footstool, dating from the 1940s–1950s. The bench features a sturdy frame with straight rails and finely turned legs, giving it both a classic and understated character. This example comes with a removable cushion, hand-embroidered in a delicate floral pattern with soft tones of blue, yellow, green, and red.
