Footstool project - completed

A footstool to go with our refurbished mid-century modern chair*   The frame** is made of, I think,  sapele timber with mortise and tenon joints attaching the rails to the legs - all edges with a soft round-over and finished with a hard-wax oil.
















The upholstered top is a sheet of 9mm board and a dense foam pad covered with polyester wadding in a stockinette cover, a thin cotton covering and finally the citrus coloured chenille fabric. 
The colour match isn't perfect but is closer than the photograph suggests.
