Description
Design. Crafted to perfectly complement the entire Darwin collection, this stylish footstool is grand in design and the perfect accompaniment to your living space. A stunning blend of leather and fabric dressed with additional antique studs and classic turned feet give an opulent and timeless feel. An alternative to your traditional coffee table, the Darwin is more than your average footrest.
Our Stylist Says
I love the Darwin footstool for its versatile mix of leather and fabric, which lends it a sophisticated yet approachable look. It works well in both traditional and contemporary interiors, acting as a functional accent piece or extra seating. Its neutral tones make it easy to style alongside various colour palettes, while its handy size means it can double as a side table when topped with a tray. For styling tips, try pairing it with a mix of textured cushions and throws or placing it near a armchair to create a cosy reading nook. Its timeless design and adaptable appearance make it a practical addition to many living spaces.

A Remarkable Journey
Born from the vision of two young RAF men, Charles Barker and Alex Stonehouse, Barker and Stonehouse emerged as a beacon of hope, infusing post-war Britain with a hint of glamour. Starting from a single store in Stockton on Tees, their entrepreneurial spirit led to rapid expansion, opening multiple stores across the region.
Their fast growth was fueled not only by their flair for business but also by their dedication to innovation. The business transformed over the years, adapting to the changing landscapes of retail, all while preserving its charm and values. By 2021, they marked an impressive 75 years in the industry, a testament to their enduring commitment to quality and customer service.
Sustainability at the Forefront
From the very start, Barker and Stonehouse has held a deep commitment to the environment. This devotion was showcased through initiatives such as the Trees4Trees Project, a reforestation effort in Indonesia.
Ensuring that for every tree used in their products, more than two were replanted, nearly 1.5 million trees have been restored under this initiative.
Their Knaresborough store, one of the greenest retail stores in the UK, further underscores their dedication to sustainable practices. As a cherry on top, by 2021, the company achieved the status of "Carbon Neutral Plus", making them a trailblazer in the furniture industry.
Innovative Spaces and Expanding Horizons
Over the decades, Barker and Stonehouse didn't just expand in number, but in the quality and innovation of their spaces. From opening their iconic store in Battersea, London, which beautifully preserved the characteristics of an old candle factory, to their latest state-of-the-art Gateshead store in 2023, every location tells a story.
They have also ventured into digital realms, ensuring a vast online presence and offering a wide range of products to customers all over the UK. Their partnerships, like the one with Fenwick in 2021, illustrate their adaptability and constant quest to reach new audiences.
