THIS IS A FRENCH  VINTAGE (c early / mid 1900s)  UPHOLSTERED FOLDING ROCKING FOOT STOOL / GOUT STOOL.  THESE STOOLS WERE IN COMMON USE IN FRANCE IN THE EARLY 1900s, BUT HAPPILY WITH MEDICAL ADVANCES OVER THE YEARS, ARE LESS OFTEN USED FOR GOUT RELIEF, BUT STILL MAKE VERY COMFORTABLE FOOT STOOLS, AND THEY HELP TO RELIEVE ACHING LEGS AND CIRCULATION PROBLEMS.. THE STOOL MEASURES 48cm LONG X 32.5cm WIDE, AND 36cm HIGH. THE LEG SUPPORT IS UPHOLSTERED IN A GOLD DRALON MATERIAL.THE FOOT SUPPORT HAS WOODEN SLATS. THE STOOL STANDS ON SLEIGH RUNNER TYPE FEET AND COLLAPSES DOWN FOR STORAGE   IT DOES HAVE A SMALL CHIP AS SHOWN IN PHOTOS .THIS STOOL WOULD MAKE AN ATTRACTIVE ADDITION TO ANY HOME.  I HAVE NUMEROUS OTHER ANTIQUE & VINTAGE FRENCH COLLECTIBLE LISTINGS  -  MULTI ITEM POSTAGE DISCOUNT WOULD OF COURSE BE GIVEN WHERE APPLICABLE.
