Upholstered Ottoman or Footstool with Paisley Pattern

This item is an upholstered ottoman or footstool, rectangular in shape, featuring a two-tiered design. The top cushion is thick and well-padded, with visible piping along its edges, indicating a tailored finish. The upholstery fabric is a complex, multicolored paisley pattern in shades of gold, blue, and gray on a lighter, possibly cream or beige, background. The golden tones appear rich and prominent. The overall design of the fabric suggests a classical or ornate textile style. Below the top cushion, there is a second upholstered tier, slightly thinner than the top, which forms the body of the stool. This lower section is also upholstered in the same intricate paisley fabric. The wooden frame supporting the upholstered sections consists of four block-style legs, which appear to be made of a medium to dark-stained hardwood, possibly mahogany or walnut, given its reddish-brown hue. The legs are connected by stretchers on the longer sides, providing stability to the structure. The wood shows a visible grain and a polished finish. The condition appears to be good overall, with no obvious major tears or stains on the upholstery, although some minor fraying or wear might be present on closer inspection, particularly where the fabric meets the wooden frame. The piping on the top cushion seems intact. Stylistically, the piece leans towards a traditional or transitional aesthetic, possibly dating from the mid-20th century to more contemporary periods, given the upholstery fabric's typical patterns. The craftsmanship appears solid, with well-constructed upholstery and a sturdy wooden base.
