Inspired by the ornate collars from the Elizabethan era, the Ruff Pouf combines function without sacrificing design aesthetic. Combining geometry and folding techniques, the unique pleated skirt of this pouf surrounds a solid circular drum filled with polystyrene. Handmade using wool felt, the Ruff Pouf’s interesting combination of structure and abstraction makes a bold statement in any space.
