Description:
This is a fine quality antique Victorian mahogany & brown leather ottoman, circa 1880, in excellent condition. The ottoman has been newly & professionally upholstered with traditional horsehair filling and top-quality full grain tan brown leather and benefits from a sumptuous deep buttoned seat. The seat is hinged and can be opened to reveal a spacious interior, which has been lined with brown fabric. The original hinges to the lid are strong and in good condition, which means the lid can be supported, whilst open, with the aid of the support strap / stay.

The ottoman incorporates a moulded mahogany frieze and stands on later elegant turned bun feet, incorporating solid brass castors.
This Victorian brown leather ottoman would be useful for storing magazine, music, clothes or bedding; it would look great in a variety of rooms from the living room or bedroom in front of the bed.
