Rare Vintage XL Moroccan Leather Pouf – Reversible Red/Black Star – 1970s – Handmade
An authentic and exceptionally rare 1970s Moroccan XL leather pouf (ottoman), a true vintage find with a unique dual-design feature. This high-quality piece is fully reversible: one side features a striking red star on a deep black background, while the other side offers the inverse color scheme (black star on red). It provides two distinct decorative looks in one single high-quality item.
Handcrafted from thick, premium genuine goatskin leather, this pouf showcases the superior durability and craftsmanship of the 1970s era. Unlike modern versions, the leather from this period is significantly thicker and more robust. The decorative red hand-stitching is fully intact, highlighting the intricate patchwork and the iconic eight-pointed star motif (Rub el Hizb).
This XL-sized pouf is a versatile statement piece, perfect for Mid-Century Modern, Bohemian, or eclectic 1970s retro interiors.
Key Features:
Unique Feature: Fully reversible design (Double-sided).
Pattern: Large Geometric Star.
Material: 100% Genuine thick vintage goatskin leather.
Style: 1970s Retro / Bohemian / Mid-Century Modern.
Size: XL (Approx. 55 cm diameter).
Condition Report:
Excellent vintage condition for its age (approx. 50 years). The leather is supple, strong, and clean. It possesses a beautiful, authentic natural patina and minor character marks that confirm its vintage history. The original dyes remain vibrant and the hand-stitching is firm and complete. No holes, tears, or unpleasant odors.
Dimensions (Stuffed):
Diameter: approx. 55 cm
Width/Depth: 55 cm
Height: approx. 30 cm
Weight (Unfilled): approx. 1.5 kg
