The Sustainable Choice

FAQs

Originating in 19th-century European interiors, upholstered ottomans with concave sides served as both decorative seating and functional storage for household linens.

These storage pieces were typically built with solid timber frames such as mahogany or pine, padded with horsehair or wool, covered in woven upholstery fabric, and finished with metal stud trim.

Authentic 19th-century examples display hand-cut joinery on the inner frame, traditional tacking marks underneath, hand-carved wood moulding along the edges, and age-consistent wear on timber surfaces.

Position the piece at the foot of a bed or as a central low accent table in a living room to introduce textural contrast and concealed storage.

Vacuum the upholstery gently using a soft brush attachment, keep the piece away from direct sunlight to prevent textile fading, and polish exposed wood mouldings with natural beeswax.
