Dannforth Ottoman

This ottoman features a polybead interior, a filling chosen for its ability to conform to the body while remaining lightweight. This makes it an excellent choice for informal extra seating or a soft footrest. To maintain its plump, round shape over time with regular use, we recommend a simple "fluff and rotate" routine, which redistributes the beads and ensures the hand-knitted jute cover stays taut and supportive.

The hand-knitted construction signifies artisanal craftsmanship, resulting in a thick, durable weave that offers more character than mass-produced fabrics. This technique creates a unique, rustic-inspired texture that serves as a focal point in modern or bohemian decors. While some customer assembly is required, the final result is a sturdy, high-quality accent piece that brings a sense of handcrafted warmth to your home.

This ottoman stands at 14 inches high with a 20-inch diameter, making it an ideal companion for most standard sofas, which typically feature a seat height between 16 and 18 inches. Interior design experts recommend that a footstool be equal to or slightly lower than your sofa’s cushions to ensure ergonomic comfort. Its compact, circular silhouette is specifically designed to add functional surface area without overwhelming the traffic flow in your living room.

Jute is a natural, sustainable fiber prized for its organic texture and rustic charm. To maintain the hand-knitted weave, we recommend frequent vacuuming to prevent dust and debris from settling into the crevices. Because jute is highly absorbent, our material care guide suggests blotting liquid spills immediately with a clean, dry cloth to prevent moisture damage. This piece is designated as "Spot Clean Only," and we advise avoiding harsh chemicals that could degrade the natural plant fibers.

While the hand-knitted jute provides a beautiful tactile surface, it is naturally textured. To transform this piece into a stable coffee table substitute, we recommend placing a flat-bottomed decorative tray on top. This provides a level surface for drinks and remotes while allowing you to enjoy the multi-functional benefits of a soft, upholstered accent.

Absolutely. Round ottomans are highly effective in smaller layouts because their lack of sharp corners makes them easier to navigate in tight spaces. The legless, floor-based design creates a grounded, modern look that adds warmth and "hygge" to an apartment without the visual clutter of exposed legs. Its lightweight polybead filling also makes it easy to reposition whenever you need extra seating or a flexible footrest.
