This Pelfran storage pouf in beige faux fur fabric brings a contemporary touch while retaining the look of a vintage find from the seventies. Its lid opens to reveal a beautiful storage space in white plastic, ideal for keeping throws, magazines, or small everyday accessories within reach. Placed in a living room or bedroom, it also provides extra seating and pairs well with a sofa featuring clean lines, a textured rug, or a wooden coffee table. It is also perfect as an end-of-sofa piece or as a footrest. Height: 40 cm Diameter: 38 cm A Brief History of the Pouf Originating in the 18th century, the pouf was initially a fully padded supplementary seat, with its wooden structure completely hidden under fabric and fringes. Its name, almost sonorous, evokes the softness of its stuffing, which allowed ladies to sit without wrinkling their voluminous dresses, unlike rigid-backed chairs. At its peak during the Second Empire, it symbolized a nonchalant bourgeois comfort, often adorned with luxurious trimmings that touched the floor.
