Cowhide Pouf Ottoman

Cowhide is making a comeback and I am determined to bring some Yee-haw chic into my house. Cowhide doesn't just mean your grandpa's brown leather chair any more. Instead, for all the textures, colors and patterns that it come in these days, cowhide can add a touch of glam, luxury and fun to any décor setting.

I love the pattern of this pair from EWF modern, but I am not such a big fan of the legs. I think natural cowhide works better in pouf, which would max the lush and comfort factor. A cube ottoman with legs just looks too formal and rigid to me.

For $900, you can have this gorgeous mecina cowhide pouf from Natural Rugs.


Or how about this fabulous vintage deer hide pouf ottoman by Karl Springer? I love how neutral the color is but the texture of natural deer hide is also so lush! It's the understated/muted glam that I've always been trying to accomplish. There were a total of four and I purchased a pair! The other pair went to a Hollywood celebrity which I will tell you more about once I receive them. They are on the way to me and I just can't tell you how excited I am. Wouldn't they look fabulous in a nursery? Living room? Guest bedroom?
