Antique Prayer Stool / Church Kneeler
A wonderfully atmospheric antique prayer stool or church kneeler of unusually long proportions, raised on turned mahogany bun feet and upholstered in a deep olive green velvet.
Likely originally made for ecclesiastical use, the piece retains a beautifully simple and honest form, with the elongated cushion and low profile characteristic of traditional church kneelers or communion rail stools. The mellow mahogany base displays attractive age and patina throughout, while the rich velvet upholstery gives the piece a warm country house feel.
Highly versatile as both a decorative and functional piece, ideal positioned before a fireplace, beneath a window, at the foot of a bed or within a layered traditional interior.
A charming and increasingly desirable decorative antique with excellent scale and character.
