1940s Art Deco Oval Footstool with Hand-Worked Needlepoint Floral Top

Annihilate the landfill, rest your feet on someone's gorgeous handiwork

Someone spent serious hours on this needlepoint—a lush floral bouquet in corals, pinks, and yellows against sage green wool. The mahogany-stained hardwood base reads pure 1940s Art Deco: oval form, fluted tapered legs, clean lines that play surprisingly well with modern interiors. At roughly 10 inches tall, it's the ideal height for reading chair duty or pulling double shifts as a plant stand. Frame is solid with expected vintage wear to the finish; needlepoint is intact with light surface dust.

The D'Beetle Difference

• Hand-Stitched Wool Needlepoint: Original petit point floral design worked in wool yarn on canvas. Colors remain vibrant with no holes, tears, or moth damage visible.

• Solid Art Deco Frame: Oval hardwood base with characteristic fluted legs and ogee molding at the apron. Measures approximately 10 inches tall with generous oval footprint.

• Built to Last Decades More: Sturdy mortise-and-tenon leg construction. Frame shows honest age patina and minor scuffing consistent with 80+ years of actual use.
