Tuesday's Top 10- Ottomans

Tuesday January 19, 2010

Today's TOP 10 list is one of the most versatile pieces in the home, an ottoman. I love ottomans because you can tuck them into so many different areas. They are very multifunctional as you can use them to put your feet on or top them with a tray and set a drink upon them! Here's my picks for the Top 10 Ottomans:

10) Drum Ottoman, Lee Industries

This circular ottoman makes for a great cocktail ottoman as it's size is really nice. I love the nail heads, I think it is a nice detail. This ottoman comes in a few different sizes which is always great for a designer who needs options.

9) Ottoman, Century Furniture

This 3 cylinder ottoman makes for a beautifully shaped stool! The wood base really makes for a nice platform!

8) Storage Ottoman,

This beautiful ottoman is also very functional as a storage ottoman! It's always nice to throw some magazines, kids toys, or blankets in the inside!

7) Topkapi Ottoman Baker Furniture

This large cocktail ottoman beautifully adorned with decorative bouillon detail and yet very functional. It's really nice because it can fit really nicely between 2 chairs, especially when your tight on space!

6) Rolland Ottoman, Hickory Chair

I love this ottoman because of it's clean transitional lines. I think the tufting on this ottoman is really quite wonderful! The other reason I really like this ottoman is it is part of Hickory Chair's Made to Measure line, meaning we can make this ottoman any size! It is just as beautiful small as it is large!

5) Italian Ottoman, Baker Furniture

I love the unique shape of this little ottoman. These are so versatile and look wonderful as a pair! They work great to pull up into a room when you are needing a little extra seating!

4) Regency Bench, Baker Furniture

A great ottoman to use with a lounge chair. It also works as a nice accent in other areas of the home. The Regency bench is inspired by the early Egyptian okladias or folding stool with a leather seat, both well-born Greeks and those of humble beginnings, favored a simple stool with cleverly crossed legs.

3) Star of India Ottoman, Pearson

This ottoman can make for a great statement in the center of a room! Not only is the shape very interesting but it has the capability to really be interesting with a bold fabric! This ottoman is a star in my eyes!

2) Cocktail Ottoman, Pearson

Just like the name of this ottoman says it makes for a awesome cocktail table! The shelf below is very functional and the fretwork adds to the beauty of the piece.

1) Anatasia Bench, Hickory Chair

This ottoman was introduced last fall from Hickory Chair and I have loved it ever since! The bench was designed by Suzanne Kasler and was found on one of her trips to the Paris Flea Markets. The beautiful carving & unique scallops make this a very unique bench in any room!
