Needlepoint gilt wood faux bamboo stool

A petite oval stool upholstered in olive green with a central band of fine petit point worked with a pink flower-filled urn amid scrolling foliage on a cream ground, edged in braid. Below, the giltwood frame is carved in imitation of bamboo, legs and stretchers turned to bamboo sections with small ball finials.

Faux bamboo giltwood was the height of boudoir fashion in late 19th and early 20th century France. This one is small in scale, made to tuck beside a chair or beneath a vanity, the warm gilt playing against the green.
