Ottomans

Ottomans Designed for Style, Comfort, and Adaptability

An ottoman is a versatile piece that quietly enhances everyday living. It offers a place to rest your feet, provides extra seating for guests, and can double as a surface for trays or books. Some designs also include hidden storage, helping keep living spaces neat while adding softness and texture.

At The Furniture Gallery, our ottoman range features a variety of fabrics, shapes, and sizes, from compact footstools to larger statement pieces designed for comfortable, practical living.

A Smart Choice for Any Space

Ottomans are one of the most adaptable pieces in the home, making them a smart choice for any space. Use them in the living room as a surface for drinks or decor, choose a storage ottoman to hide clutter, bring one out for extra seating, pair a footstool with a reading chair, or arrange multiple smaller pieces for a flexible, ever-changing layout.

Explore Our Ottoman Collection

Our collection covers a wide variety of ottoman types, so you can find the right piece regardless of your room size, layout, or style preference.

Footstools

Classic and practical, a footstool provides a comfortable spot to rest your legs beside a sofa or armchair.

Square and Rectangular Ottomans

Structured and versatile, these shapes suit contemporary interiors and pair well with a modular sofa or corner lounges.

Round Ottomans

Perfect for softening a room’s lines, they work well in smaller spaces or with curved seating and add sculptural appeal.

Oversized Ottomans

Generous in size, ideal for creating a relaxed and comfortable seating arrangement in larger living areas.

Swivel Ottomans

Storage Ottomans

Cushioned seating with hidden storage, perfect for keeping your space tidy and stylish.

What to Look for When Choosing an Ottoman

Size and Proportion

An ottoman should feel balanced within your seating arrangement. As a footstool, it works best when it sits just below the height of your sofa seat.

Material and Durability

Consider how an ottoman will be used each day. Sturdy leather or performance fabric fits busy households, while boucle and velvet suit relaxed, textured spaces.

Styling Tips for Your Ottoman

An ottoman can be both functional and a standout piece in your living room. Here is how to make the most of it.

• Position it in front of your sofa or between two chairs to anchor the seating arrangement.
• Lay a tray across the top, add a candle, a small plant, and a stack of books for an effortless coffee table setup.
• Contrast the ottoman fabric with your sofa. A textured boucle ottoman alongside a smooth leather sofa creates visual interest.
• Mix scale by pairing a large ottoman with a smaller side table or footstool for a layered, lived-in look.
• In a bedroom, place a long bench-style ottoman at the foot of the bed to add warmth and a practical landing spot.

Caring for Your Ottoman

• Rotate or fluff cushioned tops regularly to maintain shape and even wear.
• Spot clean fabric surfaces with a lightly damp cloth suited to the material.
• For leather ottomans, wipe down with a clean, dry cloth and condition periodically to prevent drying or cracking.
• Use a throw or tray to protect the surface in high-use areas.
• Follow the manufacturer's care instructions for your specific material.
