This beautiful rare Scalamandré Le Tigre Ottoman from the 1960's is straight from the source of Scalamandre silk velvet itself - Italy. Sourced from estate of a lady whom brought it with her from Italy when she moved to America in the 1970's.
As Marco Polo brought silk velvets to Italy from China, this classic silk velvet finds its roots in Venice, originally launched by Iris Apfel through Old World Weavers in the 1960’s. This work of art is still woven by hand in Venice today, otherwise known as the catalyst to our several beloved variations. With one spine and a narrow width very common for all handwoven fabrics, Tiger - Silk - Handwoven is a classic, luxurious Old World Weavers design.
Introduced by Franco Scalamandré in the 1960's the long-standing Scalamandré icon, Tigre – Silk, makes a statement in both traditional and modern interiors. Tigre – Silk’s graphic tiger skin pattern features two spines within a woven ombré of color, allowing the design to layer beautifully in any space. This dense, luxurious silk velvet was first woven in Italy.
This Italian Stacked cushion pillow ottoman has pretty working casters on the bottom for easy rolling. It has a worn vintage patina to it. It is missing a few of the original corner poms and the piping is loose in one section. Other than that it is in good vintage condition and adds a wow factor to any room. less
