Stella Kruk

The compact shape fits perfectly in my small reading nook, and the banded base gives it a surprisingly solid feel. The tight upholstered top is firm enough to actually sit on for a while, not just look pretty.

The button tufting on top makes it look way more expensive than it was, and the banded base gives it a nice sturdy feel. I've been using mine as a footstool next to the sofa, but it's compact enough that guests pull it over for extra seating.

Bought two of these to tuck under the hallway console table, and they're perfect for pulling out when guests need extra seating. The banded base makes them look way more expensive than they were, and the tight upholstery has held up nicely with daily use.
