About the Item
This substantial ottoman by Airborne International dates from the 1970s and perfectly reflects the sculptural, comfort-driven approach of French Mid-Century design. Designed as a companion piece to Airborne lounge chairs, it also works beautifully as a standalone ottoman or low accent seat.
The piece features a generously padded cushion upholstered in its original suede leather, finished with deep button tufting that enhances both comfort and visual depth. The cushion rests on a molded black fiberglass base, a material frequently used by Airborne during this period for its durability, lightness, and modern aesthetic. The contrast between the warm suede and the sleek black base is both elegant and unmistakably of its era.
An original Airborne manufacturer’s label is still present, confirming French production and authenticity.
This ottoman embodies the relaxed luxury that made Airborne International popular in the 1960s and 1970s, particularly among architects and interior designers seeking informal yet highly designed seating solutions.
