Shop Vintage & Antique Footstools

Footstools have a long history; you can even trace them back to ancient Egypt. The Ottoman Empire used footstools, and during the 18th century, Victorian footstools provided fireplace seating with simple wood designs built for functionality.

European designers often upholstered footstools to match sofas and wingback chairs. Of course, the 1960s saw shabby chic designs, and today most footstools provide compartments for an extra storage solution.

Our expansive roster includes Victorian-styled antique footstools with ornate designs and rich oak, walnut, and mahogany finishes. Benefit from plush seating elevated on hand-carved wooden designs featuring elegant patterns.

You can also choose more contemporary selections or opt for poufs or ottomans that provide the same function as footstools while creating a place for guests to sit. If you want a small, eclectic footstool, look for 1930s art deco footstools. For bold shapes and colors, browse 1950s and 60s footstools.

How Should You Choose Your Footstool?

Footstools are an excellent opportunity for upgrading a room’s decor. Antique footstools provide comfort for your feet, perfect for resting your feet after a long day or on a rainy day inside.

You want a footstool that’s as durable and practical as it is attractive. Many of our footstools have remained untouched since the first day a designer created them. Due to expert artistry, these footstools are still in perfect condition.

Many other footstools have been thoroughly refurbished, including replacing the damaged or worn fabric, fixing loose joints, and replacing rusty screws.

The footstool you choose should match where you place it. For example, a beautifully designed footstool with ornate details works well in a big living room with plenty of detail. Meanwhile, a 1950s pouf might work better in a modern space that needs a personality boost.

Types of Footstools

Antique footstools combine visual appeal and functionality. To add a regal touch to your living room, choose a footstool with elegant hand-carved feet. If you want a more relaxed design, look for poufs or ottomans that feature storage compartments. From round footstools to square footstools with wooden legs to oval or tufted footstools, you’re sure to find a design that complements your home decor.
