Heiro Ottoman

This ottoman is an excellent choice for compact urban living or smaller floor plans. The open criss-cross design of the metal base allows light to pass through, which helps the room feel larger and less cluttered. Its 30-inch round footprint provides the utility of a footrest or extra seat without the space-consuming bulk of larger, rectangular cocktail ottomans.

The base of this ottoman is constructed from forged metal featuring a hammered texture applied by skilled artisans. Forged metal is known for its superior durability and weight-bearing strength compared to hollow-core or stamped metal. This artisan-led process creates a unique, unrefined look that ensures your piece has a high-end, bespoke character with a stable, criss-cross base designed for long-term use.

Yes, with a broad 30-inch diameter, this ottoman is a practical alternative to a traditional coffee table. Because it features an upholstered fabric cushion, we suggest using a decorative tray to create a stable, flat surface for drinks, remotes, or decor. The round shape is particularly effective in softening the lines of a room and improving traffic flow in central seating areas.

For optimal comfort as a footrest, we recommend pairing this 18-inch high ottoman with a sofa that has a seat height between 17 and 20 inches. Matching the height of your ottoman closely to your sofa’s cushions ensures a seamless transition for your legs, while the 30-inch diameter provides ample surface area for multiple people to share.

This ottoman is a safer choice for families with toddlers compared to traditional coffee tables. The round design and soft upholstered seat eliminate the sharp corners often found on wood or glass tables, reducing the risk of bumps and bruises. Furthermore, it arrives fully assembled from the factory, ensuring that all structural joints are professionally secured for maximum stability and safety.

Based on our expertise in furniture care, we recommend regular light vacuuming of the upholstered cushion to prevent dust from settling into the fabric. For the forged metal base, a soft, dry microfiber cloth is best for dusting the hammered texture. To preserve the finish and fabric integrity, avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive materials, which can strip the handmade character of the metal base.
