The Perfect Small-Space Solution
This square leather ottoman transforms compact living areas into functional, stylish havens. The 16-inch cube design serves as extra seating for guests, a comfortable footrest after long days, a meditation cushion for mindful practice, or a sturdy base for coffee table trays. The rich cognac brown leather showcases a beautiful gradient from lighter tan tones to deeper chocolate hues, while cream contrast stitching adds contemporary flair to traditional Moroccan craftsmanship. Perfect for apartments, dorm rooms, home offices, or yoga studios where versatility meets authentic design.
Crafted with Three Generations of Expertise
Each square leather ottoman is handcrafted over 3-4 days by Omar, a master leather artisan working in Marrakech’s historic medina. Using traditional saddle-stitching techniques passed through generations, Omar carefully selects premium full-grain leather panels for their natural texture and organic color variations. The six-panel construction features evenly spaced running stitches along every seam, with double-row stitching reinforcing each corner for lasting durability. The leather’s smooth yet organic surface with visible grain patterns showcases authentic material quality, while the precise alignment of panels demonstrates decades of refined skill.
More Than Furniture: An Investment in Craftsmanship
Choosing this handcrafted footstool supports fair-trade artisan families in Morocco while bringing space-saving furniture into your home. Unlike mass-produced pieces, this ottoman develops a beautiful patina over time, becoming more characterful with age. The eco-friendly production uses vegetable-tanned leather and traditional hand-stitching methods that minimize environmental impact. Its timeless bohemian aesthetic adapts to evolving decor styles, making it an investment in both craftsmanship and sustainable living.

A: We offer both options! You can choose a pre-stuffed pouf with premium polyester filling ready to use, or select the unstuffed version with a bottom zipper to fill yourself. The unstuffed option dramatically reduces shipping costs and allows you to customize the firmness to your preference.
A: For a 16x16" square: 50-60 ounces of polyester fiberfill. For 18x18": 60-70 ounces. You can also use old clothes or towels—about 3/4 to one full laundry basket compressed tightly.
A: This is critical! Pack all four corners FIRST, pushing filling deep into each corner until they're very firm. Then stuff the edges, and fill the center last. Soft corners = saggy pouf. The corners should feel almost hard initially. See our complete filling guide.
A: They weren't packed firmly enough. Unzip and add more filling specifically to the corners. Square poufs need extra-firm corner packing to maintain their angular shape—this is the #1 mistake people make.
A: Very, very firm—especially in the corners. It should feel too hard when you first fill it. The square shape loses definition quickly if under-stuffed, unlike round poufs which are more forgiving.
A: Yes! When properly filled (especially the corners), this square pouf supports up to 250 pounds. Make sure corners are packed tight for stability—soft corners make it feel unstable when you sit.
A: Yes! The flat edges align perfectly with furniture and don't roll or shift. The angular top is more stable for trays, drinks, or books. It looks intentional as a table, not improvised.
A: Wipe all surfaces with a soft, dry cloth weekly—the flat top collects dust. Blot spills immediately. Pay attention to the corner seams; use a small brush to clean dust from edges. Condition the leather every 6-12 months.
A: 2-3 days for production, then 7-15 days standard shipping (USA/Europe) with free shipping. Square poufs pack flatter than round ones, making them economical to ship. Express options available.
A: Yes, handcrafted in Marrakech by master artisans. Creating perfect 90-degree corners in leather requires exceptional skill. With proper care and firm stuffing, it will last 10-20+ years. The leather develops a beautiful patina over time.
