So I debated for ages about whether or not to buy this stool. I couldn't decide whether it was too extravagant and whether I should just buy a cheap everyday plastic number from the high street, or whether I should treat myself. Well, I went for the latter, and I am so glad I did!! This is really beautiful in my bedroom! It is a little bit on the small side ( it is a stool after all), but it looks very chic and elegant, exactly what you might find in an upmarket hotel bedroom. Very pleased with it indeed. So much so in fact, that I am contemplating buying a second one for my spare room!!
