Ottomans

Indulge in comfort. Whether you desire a place to rest your feet, a convenient surface for a serving tray, or additional seating for spontaneous gatherings, ottomans, poufs and foot stools are as functional as they are stylish. Ottomans and poufs serve as excellent footrests and floor seats in any living space. Looking to infuse your decor with a splash of color? A vibrant pouf can be the perfect solution—choose one that contrasts with your sectional or accent chair upholstery to create a striking focal point. A bold hue against black seating immediately draws attention. For a more subtle aesthetic, opt for an ottoman in a complementary shade, such as a light grey stool next to a charcoal chair, to create a cohesive look. Limited on space? A storage ottoman offers an elegant solution, providing a place to store extra blankets and pillows while maintaining a chic and tidy environment.

Ottomans were first brought to Europe from Turkey––the center of the Ottoman Empire, hence their name––in the late 18th century. Traditionally, they were padded, upholstered seats or benches without arms or backs, often piled with cushions and serving as the primary seating in homes.

What's The Difference Between An Ottoman and a Pouf?

Ottomans are generally firmer and less cushiony, while some poufs resemble oversized pillows. Additionally, ottomans typically have legs that elevate them slightly, whereas poufs usually rest flat on the ground.
