Boot Stools by Hancock & Moore are one of the best little pieces you never heard of. I have one in my library at home and am always suggesting them to customers when they want a footrest but don't need a full-size ottoman. Boot stools allow your legs to get comfortable in a chair or sofa by giving you a footrest, but not as elevated as an ottoman. I find them perfect for reading, myself.

However, its often difficult to show you the scale of a Boot Stool, so here's a few photos to help you see the differences. This is the # 016 Boot Stool (Ashmore) next to the standard Arrington Ottoman - and another shot in front of a $ 9840 City Sofa.

They will always be less in cost than an ottoman, and can be shipped via UPS or Fed Ex Ground (standard ottomans cannot).
