Ottomans: For More Than Putting Your Feet Up
They may have originated as footrests, but modern leather ottomans serve multiple purposes today and offer benefits for every room. Not that there’s anything wrong with the role of footrest—one of our favorite comforting combinations is a classic mid century leather ottoman and its matching leather chair. Here are more of our favorite shapes and styles.
Pull-Up Ottomans: Smaller-scale and easy to move, they can be footrests, extra seats or topped with a tray FOR snacks. You’ll find square or round shapes—including petite swivel ottomans. Add them to a conversation area, tuck one in a corner, or place two under a console table for handy extra seats when company comes, or put a pair at the foot of your bed. In leather, they also contrast beautifully with fabric upholstery, adding another layer of texture to your interiors.
Bench Ottomans: Appealing and practical for spaces from entryways, hallways, and stair landings to end of bed for a more finished look or in a home office for extra surface and seating. Style-wise, some bench ottomans are upholstered to the floor for a clean look, while others have wood or metal bases that can be customized in a range of finishes to complement the leather or coordinate with tables or storage pieces. Some also feature meticulously crafted details like modern hand-sewn grid tufting.
Round or Square Cocktail Ottomans: Also called coffee table ottomans, they are ideal for centering a seating area, where they can display a tray of books and objects or drinks and snacks, and also serve as extra seating when entertaining. Their soft edges make them safe yet stylish options for homes with young children—and much more comfortable than a wood coffee table for putting your feet up.
Bench Seating Styles You’ll Love
Leather benches contribute a sophisticated look and a very durable seating option to many spaces. Their elongated silhouettes show off leather’s natural warmth and rich patina.
You’ll find these well-padded, comfortable seats for two in a range of modern shapes, from curved waterfall styles to sculptural contemporary designs. Some are fully upholstered in leather for a clean look. Others combine a leather seat with a metal or wood frame that you can customize in a selection of finish options. Modern benches may also feature decorative details like hand-sewn Art Deco-inspired channel tufting or traditional button tufting.
Leather benches blend well with fabric upholstery in the living or family room. You can place one in front of a window without blocking the view, use as a cozy spot in front of a fireplace, or add it to a conversation area. They’re a wonderful addition to a bedroom, at the end of the bed for sitting while dressing, laying out clothes for the next day, or piling decorative pillows at night. They’re also great for warming up a wide hallway or a place to put on shoes or put down packages in an entryway.
The Benefits of Leather Furnishings
A touch of leather adds richness and a feeling of luxury to interiors. Depending on its type and color, leather can turn a practical everyday piece into a timeless classic or a fashion-forward modern statement. And with our collection of leathers, which includes a variety of neutral hues, it is easy to mix with your existing furnishings or new pieces when you refresh a room.
Other benefits include durability, low maintenance, and a family-friendly feel. And leather is a great canvas for bringing in more texture to a room like soft wool throws or velvet pillows.
Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams leathers range from full-aniline natural-looking leathers with a soft hand that develop a rich patina over time to a textured performance leather that holds its color and is scratch- and stain-resistant. Learn about our many options in our Leather Guide. And order up to 10 free leather swatches here to help you decide—the color options are beautiful, from natural tones to jewel tones and bold modern hues.
Our leather upholstered benches and ottomans are also available to customize in our extensive collection of 400+ fabrics, including performance textiles.
