Lamb Wool Pouf Stool

Some pieces of furniture are big decisions: a sofa, a dining table, a bed. Others are small and easy, yet end up being used more than anything else in the room. The Lamb Wool Pouf Stool is one of those small, easy pieces. It is a soft cube about 9.8 inches on every side, covered in a plush lamb wool style fabric, and it moves wherever a low seat or a footrest is needed.

That is exactly what makes it such a good pouf. It is light enough to carry with one hand, soft enough to sit on or rest your feet on, and cozy enough to make a room feel warmer just by being there. It never needs a permanent spot, because it is always useful somewhere.

What makes the lamb wool pouf stand out

The cover is the first thing you notice. The plush lamb wool style fabric has a soft, cloud like texture that invites you to touch it. In a room full of smooth surfaces, like leather sofas, wood floors and glass tables, it adds a welcome note of softness and warmth.

The size is what makes it so easy to live with. At about 9.8 inches on every side, it is compact and light. You can pull it over with one hand to rest your feet in front of the sofa, carry it to a bedroom for a child to sit on, or tuck it under a console table when you need the floor. It never gets in the way.

The cushioned fill keeps it comfortable. It is soft enough to sink into a little when you sit or rest your feet, yet it holds its cube shape so the pouf looks neat when it is not being used.

Four colors are offered: chocolate, gray, yellow and white. White and gray sit quietly in a calm, neutral room, chocolate adds warmth to a space with wood and leather, and yellow brings a cheerful accent to a nursery or a playroom.

Where it looks best, room by room

• Living rooms. A footstool in front of the sofa or an armchair.
• Nurseries and kids' rooms. A soft, low seat sized for small children.
• Bedrooms. A cozy perch beside the bed or at a dressing table.
• Reading corners. A footrest that turns any chair into a comfortable nook.
• Entryways. A soft spot to sit while putting on shoes.

Because it is so compact, it also suits small apartments, where every piece of furniture has to earn its keep. One pouf can be a footrest in the evening, a seat for a visiting friend and a playful perch for a child, all in the same day.

A pair of pouf stools in two colors, such as white and chocolate, makes a charming, relaxed arrangement in front of a sofa or under a window.

Choosing the size and placement

The pouf is a cube about 9.8 inches on every side. That low height is comfortable as a footrest in front of most sofas and armchairs, and it makes a good seat for children. For adults, it works as a casual perch rather than a main seat.

A few tips help it look and work its best:

• Set it on a flat floor or a low rug rather than a thick pile rug, so it does not tip.
• Keep it within reach of the sofa or chair where you like to put your feet up.
• Keep it away from damp areas, such as a bathroom or a rainy entry, so the fabric stays soft.
• Brush the pile back up if it flattens, so the cover keeps its plush look.

If you plan to use it mainly as a footrest, place it a short step in front of the sofa so your legs rest comfortably without stretching. If it is mainly a child's seat, set it beside a low table or a bookshelf.

Because it is light, it is also easy to move for cleaning. Lift it aside when you vacuum, then set it back in its favorite spot in a moment.

Pairing it with other pieces

A plush pouf looks best with a mix of textures around it. Pair it with a knit throw blanket on the sofa, a woven basket nearby and a soft rug underfoot, and the whole corner feels cozy and inviting. In a Scandinavian room, a white or gray pouf beside light wood and linen looks fresh and calm.

Browse the poufs and ottomans collection for larger companion pieces, or the throw blankets collection for a soft layer to match. A warm table lamp nearby makes a reading corner with a pouf feel especially inviting in the evening.

Is the lamb wool pouf right for your space?

This pouf is a strong fit if you:

• Want a small, light footstool you can move with one hand.
• Love plush, cozy textures in a living room or bedroom.
• Need a low seat for children or an extra perch for guests.
• Have a small space where furniture needs to be flexible.

It may not be the right choice if you want a large ottoman for an adult to sit on for long periods, or a cover that can be machine washed, since this one should be spot cleaned only. For a larger seat, a full size pouf or ottoman bench will suit you better.
