Louis XV Carved Fruitwood Footstool Converted to Coffee Table w/ Red Marble














Louis XV Carved Fruitwood Footstool Converted to Coffee Table w/ Red Marble
A fine quality French country carved fruitwood footstool with a custom red marble inset top.  Coming directly from a wealthy NYC family who owned many fine period French antiques.  This is possibly a late 18th, early 19th century example. 
Makes an excellent coffee table, but can also be converted back into a bench with an upholstered slip seat. 
The lines and proportions are excellent.  Great patina. 
Condition:  Overall very good.  Normal light wear from use.  The wooden portion is a bit creaky, but does not wobble.  I would suggest having the joints reguled if you convert it into a footstool again.
 
Measurements:  
15" H x 25" W x 16" D
