There’s something very unique about oak flooring. They bring warmth, texture and a natural character to any room. They also give you a versatile base for choosing what kind of furniture you want. However, we have seen so many homeowners hesitate when it comes to dark furniture.
At first, the black leather footstool can look like a bold choice against oak floors, and you may think they they colours compete with each other. But in reality, they go together very well. You need a little bit of balance. The black furniture gives the oak-floored room a good focal point.
We create handmade footstools and hallway benches in a wide range of fabrics and leathers for you to choose from. We have a black leather option that gives you the chance to introduce a deeper tone without moving away from the warmth of a traditional interior.
Why Black Leather Works With Oak Flooring?
The warmth of oak makes it easy to pair with different colours of your furniture. The grain creates visual interest across a large surface. A black leather footstool can then provide a stronger, simpler shape within that setting.
This contrast also defines the different areas of an open living space. If your sofa, floor and walls are a softer or warmer shade, the black ottoman can add definition without needing a complete change to your existing interior design.
Add An Oak Or Wooden Tray For Contrast
A footstool can become even more practical when you pair it with a tray. Our trays provide a stable surface for drinks, magazines and other items when you want to use your upholstered footstool as part of the living area. Our trays are handmade by our in-house carpenter and combine solid oak timber sides with an oak laminate base. We hand-finish them to order in a selection of colours and wood finishes.
Footstools & More offers black leather in different styles, including cube and drum footstools. We also build footstools in bespoke sizes, so you can consider the proportions of your own seating area rather than choosing a size simply because it is standard.
Footstools & More makes hallway benches that can also serve other purposes around the home. One example from our range is a storage bench, while other bench designs offer different upholstery and leg configurations.
Our furniture is made to order at our Yorkshire workshop, and we offer different sizes as well as bespoke options on selected pieces.
