This camel saddle has its original cushion and charming brass camel appliqués. These are great to prop up your feet in front of your favorite chair, as additional seating in a pinch, or to just plop a stack of good looking books on top to complete the conversation piece.

Here are two 1980s rattan footstools / ottomans with two separate color schemes. One stool has been painted in a tan/beige tone at the base with 4 inch thick foam cushion upholstered in a botanical pattern of leaf silhouettes. The other is painted white at the base and like the other it is topped with a 4 inch foam cushion this time upholstered in a solid toned light pink/mauve toned textile.

Our staff asks the question : Shouldn’t two ottomans be referred to as two ottomen?

A gorgeous example of the Bamileke Beadwork on this piece. Each of the motifs is associated with a distinct meaning associated with the traits the animal displays in nature, which attributes them to the stool’s occupant. The leopard, for example, is known to be cunning, fast, mobile and guardedly aggressive. It signifies the ability to survive and is the most important royal icon, often considered the king’s alter ego. The spider, often found on more abstract stools, is a symbol of wisdom.
