FAQs

Buttoned ottomans and footstools gained immense popularity during the Victorian era, evolving from traditional footstools into versatile, deeply upholstered centrepieces used for seating and comfort.

Authentic period pieces typically feature a hardwood frame such as mahogany or walnut, traditionally stuffed with natural fibres like horsehair, and finished with hand-tied springs and high-quality upholstery.

Authentication involves examining the underside construction for hand-forged tacks, traditional webbing, hand-turned wooden legs, and the natural patination on the timber and upholstery fabrics.

A large upholstered ottoman works effectively as a soft coffee table when paired with a sturdy wooden tray, or as a luxurious footrest positioned centrally within a living space.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming with a soft brush attachment, avoiding direct sunlight to prevent fabric fading, and consulting a professional conservator for deep textile cleaning.
