The Pumpkin Design Ottomans collection showcases the classic round silhouette that has made Moroccan poufs beloved worldwide. Named for their distinctive pumpkin-like shape with gently curved panels, these handcrafted leather ottomans combine timeless form with premium Moroccan craftsmanship—creating versatile pieces that are both functional and beautifully decorative.
The Iconic Moroccan Pouf Shape
The pumpkin design represents the quintessential Moroccan ottoman silhouette—a rounded, cushion-like form created by stitching together curved leather panels that meet at the top and bottom. This construction method creates the characteristic segmented appearance that gives the design its name, while the soft, organic shape invites relaxation and adds warmth to any space.
What Makes Pumpkin Design Ottomans Special:
- Classic Round Silhouette: The timeless pumpkin shape with gently curved panels creates an inviting, organic form
- Premium Moroccan Leather: Crafted from soft, durable leather that develops a beautiful patina over time
- Hand-Stitched Construction: Each panel is carefully cut and hand-stitched by artisans in Marrakech to create the distinctive rounded shape
- Versatile Color Range: Available in rich brown, classic black, natural undyed leather, sophisticated tan, and striking black and white combinations
- Authentic Craftsmanship: Each ottoman is handmade using traditional techniques passed down through generations
Artisan Craftsmanship in Every Curve
Creating a pumpkin design ottoman requires skill and precision. Artisans must cut each curved leather panel to exact specifications, then hand-stitch them together with consistent tension to achieve the smooth, rounded form. The panels converge at the top and bottom, creating the signature segmented look that defines this classic Moroccan style.
The construction process is entirely done by hand—from cutting the leather to the final stitching—ensuring each ottoman has the authentic character and quality that only handcrafted pieces possess. The soft, supple leather molds beautifully into the rounded shape, creating a comfortable and inviting piece.
