Stools
Stools are such useful things. Nothing is worse than sinking into a comfy armchair or sofa, and not having anything to put your feet on. You'd be amazed at how much of a difference having a stool to put your feet up on can make. However, they have evolved to have another popular use- they are often turned into coffee tables. The reason is, that the Georgians had no such things as coffee tables, or ottomans as we know them. The coffee table is a twentieth century invention, so in order to keep a room in one consistent period of furniture, we need to alter the intended use of the stool, and call it a coffee table. See the options below- all of which can be kept as stools, or can be easily converted into coffee tables, without changing the structure of the antique itself. Have a look, give us your feedback, feel free to ask us lots of questions, and enjoy!
