What is an ottoman?

In its creative versatility, an ottoman is both a decorative and practical accessory of enjoyment to your home living. Square, round or rectangular in shape, an ottoman is a low, backless, and armless piece of furniture upholstered in either fabric, leather, velvet,  suede, or faux fur,  typically serving as a complementary footrest to a chair or sofa. Ottoman designs can include open shelving or encase hollow spacing with a hinged lid for organised storage. Some ottomans house neat mechanisms to transform into an impromptu guest bed.

Frequently asked questions about our ottomans

How do I choose an ottoman for my living room?

You can choose to have your ottoman subtly match your furniture in an understated way. Or, in recognising that an ottoman holds its own distinct functional value, let it be an accent piece, bringing an added flair of sophistication and panache. There are no set rules on choosing your ottoman or how many to have in a room. Generally, an ottoman is about 2/3 the width of your sofa. The most important consideration is to ensure the height of your ottoman is about the same as your sofa cushions, give or take a few inches, to ensure correct levels for your utmost comfort. An ottoman is easily moved around as needed, and the size of your ottoman should allow enough space to keep a harmonious flow around it.

How do I use an ottoman?

Other than your imagination, there is no limit to the extensive use and enjoyment you can get from an ottoman, be it at the base of your bed, in your study, or lounge. Your ottoman will be the most versatile piece of furniture in your home: besides a footrest to your sofa or accent chair, an ottoman offers additional seating, provides discreet storage for your favourite throw, or serves as a coffee table. You can create added emphasis by exploring different ways to style and decorate a round or any shaped ottoman, with a stack of books or magazines or casually adorning your ottoman with a tray of eye-catching objects, plants, or flowers.

How do I clean my ottoman?

Your Ivory & Deene ottoman will play such an integral part in your daily living space and routine; it will deserve some tender, loving, deep cleaning care to keep it looking immaculate. Regularly vacuuming your ottoman will remove any dust and dirt.  For a full surface clean or spot removal of a fabric upholstered ottoman, gently rub carpet shampoo or a self-prepared soapy solution of bleach-free detergent diluted with warm water and vinegar across its surface. Your faux fur ottoman can be maintained with a detangling shampoo to remove any dirt, followed by an agitated brushing to fluff it up again.

Naturally, we always suggest discreetly testing any cleaning solution beforehand on an inconspicuous section of your ottoman.
