Story
A pouf for the armchair
The page lists the ottoman as its own product, Assaya, ottoman, credited to Satyendra Pakhalé, next to the Assaya armchair and side table. Its page text is short: a beech structure with elastic belts on a steel plate, and a choice between a fabric and a leather cover.
Page and sheet
The page calls the beech seasoned, while the sheet says solid beech wood and adds that the padding is polyurethane foam, with a cushion of foam and polyester wadding. The sheet marks the cover as not removable.
