Theodore Buttoned Stool - Dark Taupe

The Theodore is an 81cm square buttoned stool upholstered in dark taupe woven polyester fabric with deep button tufting across the top surface, piped edge detailing, and a solid dark brown wooden frame. The legs sit at 48cm height, positioning the seat at a comfortable height for use as occasional seating, a footstool, or placed in front of a dressing table or vanity.

Designed for bedrooms, dressing areas and living rooms, the Theodore provides low-height seating that works as a perch for pulling on shoes, a footrest paired with an armchair, or occasional side-table alternative topped with a tray. The 81cm x 61cm footprint fits into bay windows, at the foot of a bed, or beside a console table without occupying the floor space of a full armchair. The stool arrives flat-packed and requires simple self-assembly, typically taking 10-15 minutes with a screwdriver to attach the four legs to the upholstered seat frame.

The woven polyester fabric mixes taupe and beige tones, creating a textured surface that hides minor marks better than smooth fabrics. The deep buttoning divides the seat into quilted sections, adding visual interest and preventing the upholstery from sagging or shifting over time. The piped edges define the stool's rectangular silhouette and add a tailored finish. The Theodore is also available in Forest Green, Ivory and Warm Grey colourways, allowing multiple stools to be matched or mixed within the same room.

Does the Theodore require assembly?

Yes. The stool arrives flat-packed with the seat section pre-upholstered and the four wooden legs detached. Assembly involves attaching the legs to the seat frame using the supplied fixings, typically taking 10-15 minutes with a screwdriver.

What height is the seat?

The overall height is 48cm, which is the standard seat height for a footstool or low occasional stool. This works well for dressing tables, as a footrest paired with standard armchairs, or as a perch for putting on shoes.

How is the fabric cleaned?

The woven polyester fabric can be vacuumed regularly using an upholstery attachment. For spot cleaning, use a barely-damp cloth with water and mild detergent, blotting rather than rubbing. Avoid soaking the fabric or using harsh chemical cleaners.

What other colours are available?

The Theodore stool is available in Forest Green, Ivory, Warm Grey and this Dark Taupe option. All variants share the same dimensions, buttoned detailing and dark wood frame.
