This antique Footman's stool is a special find from England. It is unusual to see them in stainless steel. This one is handsomely designed with a cut out concentric oval pattern. The hand hold on the top makes for ease of moving. The underside of the feet still show the hand forged metal marks. Footman's stools can be used for any need where you need a riser like a stepping stool, plant holder or as a base for an object. They were originally made for keeping by the fireplace.
