Description
The Theodore is an 81 x 61cm buttoned stool upholstered in warm grey woven fabric with deep button tufting across the top surface and piped edges defining the seat perimeter. The fabric sits on a dark brown stained wooden frame with four tapered legs, giving a combined height of 48cm from floor to seat top.
Designed as a footstool for armchairs or as occasional seating in living rooms and bedrooms, the Theodore pairs directly with the Theodore Buttoned Occasional Armchair from the same range. The 81cm width spans comfortably in front of a single armchair or at the foot of a bed as a place to sit while dressing. The button tufting creates defined sections across the seat surface, preventing the fabric from sagging over time and adding visual interest to what would otherwise be a plain upholstered rectangle.
The woven fabric has a tactile, slightly textured surface rather than a smooth velvet or linen finish, and the warm grey tone sits between charcoal and stone, working with both cool and warm interior palettes. The wooden frame requires simple self-assembly on delivery — the legs fix to the upholstered base with pre-drilled holes and supplied fixings. At 12.86kg the stool has enough weight to stay planted on carpet or bare floors without sliding when used as a footrest.
The Theodore range also includes ivory, dark taupe and forest green upholstery options if the warm grey does not suit the room palette. The 48cm seat height is lower than a standard dining chair (typically 45-48cm), making this suitable as a footstool rather than primary seating at a table.

Frequently Asked
Does it require assembly?
Yes. The Theodore arrives flat-pack with the legs detached from the upholstered seat base. The legs fix to the base using pre-drilled holes and supplied screws. Assembly typically takes 10-15 minutes with a screwdriver.
What other colours are available?
The Theodore buttoned stool is also available in ivory, dark taupe and forest green upholstery within the same range. Use the search function to find other colour options in stock at Niori.
Can it be used as seating at a dining table?
The 48cm height is at the lower end of standard dining chair height (45-48cm), so it can technically be used at a table, but the lack of backrest makes it more suitable as occasional seating or a footstool rather than primary dining seating.
How is the fabric cleaned?
The woven fabric should be vacuumed regularly with an upholstery attachment to remove dust from the tufted recesses. For spot cleaning, use a barely-damp cloth with water only — avoid soaking the fabric or using household sprays that may stain the textile.
