Franco Albini Ottoman

By Sika Design

The Franco Albini Ottoman marries traditional craft techniques with natural materials. Characterised by a mid-century modern aesthetic, the Ottoman is part of a collection designed in 1951 by Italian architect and designer Franco Albini.

With a perfectly rounded form, the sculpted frame is handcrafted by skilled artisans and features a sustainable rattan structure, finished with fine wicker bindings. With adaptability in mind the Ottoman doubles up as both a footstool and an extra seat. A versatile design that fits seamlessly into both modern and contemporary living spaces.  Pairs well with other pieces from the collection.
