Banco Elton

The 18-inch height is perfect for slipping under my desk as a footrest, and the upholstered top feels surprisingly plush for a bamboo-style frame. It’s sturdy enough to sit on too, and the romantic look fits nicely in the bedroom corner.

Bought this for the foot of our bed and it's the perfect height at 18 inches for sitting while I put on shoes. The upholstered top is surprisingly cushioned, not rock hard like I expected from a bench.

The faux bamboo detailing on this bench is genuinely charming—it reads vintage without feeling kitschy. At 18 inches high it's the perfect height to perch on while pulling on shoes in the study. The upholstered top is firm but comfortable enough to use as a footrest in the evenings.
