Some pieces you own; others you live in. The Raffa Indulgent ottoman is the second kind, an invitation to slow down at the end of the day, leather softening beneath you as the room settles into something that feels entirely your own.
What makes this leather special?
This ottoman is upholstered in 100% top grain leather on every surface, never splits or bonded leather, so what you see and touch is the genuine hide throughout. Its semi-aniline finish keeps the leather luxuriously soft, with a light wax protection that deepens and improves with age. Only the finest cuts make it into production, which is part of why the surface feels so consistently supple.
How is this piece constructed?
Every Raffa Indulgent ottoman is built by hand in Mexico, piece by piece, with cutting on your specific leather only starting after you order. The frame is solid wood, hand-crafted rather than mass-produced, and expert joinery paired with a webbing support system gives it the structural integrity to hold up to real daily life.
What makes the cushions comfortable and supportive?
Softness up top, support underneath: the back cushions use a foam and feather blend, while the seat cushions combine pocket coils, foam, and feather for durable comfort. A sinuous coil system beneath the seat cushions adds resilience, keeping this ottoman from ever feeling worn-out or flat.
How should I care for it, and how will it age?
A soft, dry cloth and the occasional dusting are really all this ottoman needs. Left to its own devices, the leather will slowly develop a rich patina, evidence of a life well-lived rather than a flaw. Built the way it is, this is a piece meant to age gracefully and last for years to come.
