Retro Marco Handmade Italian Velvet Upholstered Ottoman

A round ottoman covered in velvet with bold yellow, black and ivory zigzags, edged with black piping and nailheads. At about 24 inches across and 19 inches high, it sits low like a footstool and works as extra seating or a footrest.

Velvet has been a sign of luxury since the Renaissance, when Italian weavers in Venice and Florence made it famous across Europe. The zigzag pattern gives it a playful, retro look that brightens a neutral space. It is handmade by skilled artisans with luscious designer Italian velvet, soft and luminous to the touch, upholstered over a frame of high-quality wood and set on curved wooden cabriole legs in a Victorian-style silhouette.

A symbol of luxury and grace, it embellishes any interior, classical or modern. Use it in a living room, at the foot of a bed, in an entryway or next to a reading chair. It adds color and texture to bohemian, eclectic, Southwestern and modern rooms.
