To keep your animal in the best of health for a long and happy life, we suggest the following care tips: When unusual or difficult delivery conditions are encountered, the customer will be advised in advance of the risk of damage occurring. The customer then has the option of signing a damage waiver or having the merchandise returned to the store and reselecting other products. Dust and apply a coat of NIKWAX Waterproofing Wax regularly (say every 6 weeks). DO NOT USE any spray or liquid polish as these will strip the colour Invite the untamed wonders of the animal kingdom into your home — and do so safely — with the antique, new and vintage animal sculptures available on 1stDibs.

At Leon's, we value your satisfaction and strive to ensure you receive the best value for your money.The product is designed primarily as a decorative item for the home. It is NOT built to furniture standards and the internal frame will only stand a certain amount of rough play! Ottomans can be an excellent way to add colour to a rented home where you may not have free rein with more permanent decorative features. We recommend going bold with pattern or colour so that the fabric is a little more forgiving with stains or splashes. Should you have an old rug or pair of curtains lying around, you could always repurpose them to cover your ottoman and bring a personal, lived-in texture to the room. Old furniture, bedding, appliances and electronics cannot be disposed of through Leon’s. Disposal of old merchandise reheaders the responsibility of the customer.

Artists working in every medium from furniture design to jewelry to painting have found inspiration in wild animals over the years. For sculptors, three-dimensional animal renderings — both realistic and symbolic — crisscross history and continents. In as early as 210 B.C., intricately detailed terracotta horses guarded early Chinese tombs, while North America’s native Inuit tribes living in the ice-covered Arctic during the 1800’s wore small animal figurines carved from walrus ivory. Indeed, animal sculpture has a long history, and beginning in the 19th century, the art form started becoming not only fashionable but artistically validated — a trend that continues today. At home, animal sculptures — polished bronze rhinos crafted in the Art Deco style or ceramic dogs of the mid-century modern era — can introduce both playfulness and drama to your decor. These multifunctional pieces can be found in almost every shape and size imaginable. Perhaps you have an awkwardly shaped room? An octagonal ottoman might just fit in where a conventional footstool wouldn’t. In smaller homes, hollow, hinged ottomans can double as a fantastic storage vessel for books, magazines and even bedding. Do bear in mind that ottomans have a tendency to take some light from a room so, if you prefer to avoid that, choose a raised one with legs which allow light to flood underneath.

HIPPO

as each piece of leather behaves differently no two animals are the same, the sizes given are approximate and will vary An ottoman with castors is a particularly useful piece of kit as you can wheel it around until you find the spot you like it in best. Although it is traditionally used in the centre of a living room, we also think they look great at the end of a bed, as pretty storage in a kid’s bedroom or parked under a window as a reading spot. And, when that friend unexpectedly brings a plus one to your dinner party, an ottoman can double as extra seating. Deliveries begin at approximately 8:00AM and continue until all scheduled deliveries for the day are complete.
