Moroccan Leather Pouf

The terms pouf and ottoman are often used interchangeably, but there are a few differences:

? An ottoman is typically a padded footstool or low seat with out a back, used for resting the feet or being an extra seat. Ottomans could be square, rectangular, round or cube-shaped. Poufs are often round or Moroccan-inspired pillows used as casual seating, footrests or side tables.

? Ottomans routinely have a sturdier frame and harder padding, while poufs have become soft, often filled with feathers, cotton or wool padding. Poufs can be squishy and sink in once you sit on them.

? Ottomans will often have a harder, upholstered surface, while poufs are covered in softer fabrics like leather, suede or woven textiles. Poufs often have embellishments like embroidery, tassels or tufting.

? Ottomans are commonly found in living rooms as a resting place for your feet, extra seating or a coffee table substitute. Poufs are more decorative and versatile, used in bedrooms, living rooms, nurseries and patios. They are able to become seating, ottomans, side tables or accent pieces.

? Ottomans typically have a square, boxy silhouette, while poufs are round and full, as an overstuffed pillow. Poufs are less streamlined and formal than most ottomans.

? Ottomans are often on legs or perhaps a base, while poufs sit directly on the ground. Poufs are meant to be moved around easily by lifting and placing them wherever needed.

So in summary, while ottomans and poufs serve a number of the same purposes, poufs tend to be rounder, softer, more casual and versatile, used as decorative accents and casual seating. Moroccan Leather Pouf are usually squarer, firmer and much more streamlined, mainly utilized as footrests, end tables and further seating. But the terms are often used interchangeably in many areas.
