A rare seaside needlepoint: a shell study stitched in place of the usual florals. This coastal footstool celebrates the handmade needlework tradition of English and American homes, popular since the Victorian era and happily revived by midcentury artisan embroidery kits.

The unique upholstery features a detailed conchological motif, with conch shells, scallops, and delicate sea fronds arranged in an organic, illustrative style reminiscent of an antique naturalist's study. Perfectly proportioned to slip beneath an armchair, or for a cozy reading nook layer.

Sourced in Greenwich, Connecticut.
