Dear Donna,

Looking to find out a value on this footstool.

Cathy

Dear Cathy,

Your stool looks sweet. At one time it was probably used every day.

It looks like this stool would have been from the Victorian era (late 1800s). It has what are called cabriole style legs with a hand-done needlepoint seat. Strawberries are always a pleasing design.

Antique stools have always been helpful, used for foot lifts, gout, providing extra height, etc. So your stool probably has many stories to tell. The value would be in the range of $70, because it looks to be in good clean condition.

Thanks for sharing and hope your stool stays home with you.

Stay in the loop!
