Boucle Footstools FAQs

Boucle fabric is made with wooly yarn that has a lot of curls and loops, creating a teddy-bear like texture that’s soft to the touch. “Boucler” meaning “to curl” in French, this fabric composition dates all the way back to the early 19th century in France. It’s widely recognised for its warmth and comfort that it adds to so many interiors. 

Handcrafted in the UK, our team of experts upholster this boucle fabric onto our footstools with plenty of skill and refined craftsmanship, so you can enjoy its comfort and style for many years to come!

It’s easier than you might think to clean and maintain your boucle footstool. Regularly vacuuming it with an upholstery attachment can really make a difference when it comes to removing any build up of dust and hair. A Lint roller is also a really easy, cheap and useful accessory to quickly get rid of any pet hairs, making your footstool as good as new!

If a spillage occurs on your footstool, we recommend that you blot it with a damp cloth and a mild cleaning solution. Do not rub the stain around, as this may set the stain and pull the loops of the boucle fabric. After this quick process, you can simply use a separate damp cloth to rinse away any soap residue and gently pat dry it with a tea towel, and wait 12 hours for it to fully dry. 

There are a few things to consider before making a final decision to purchase your boucle footstool, especially if you have pets. Their claws can sometimes dig into the fabric, which can often damage those loops and curls. It’s a great tip to set something up before having one, such as a scratching post for your cat and some regular training for your dog.

We have a wide range of colours to select from that are available in the boucle fabric. This includes a wide selection of colours available in the boucle fabric, including polar, turmeric, pink, olive, sapphire, stone and granite. This mixture of colours are earthy, soft and minimalistic tones that complement a wide variety of home interior styles and are ideal for creating a comfortable atmosphere.

Boucle footstools are really durable since the composition of the loops and curls in the yarn makes it resistant to wear and tear. Its textured appearance makes any snags less noticeable over time, as opposed to flat fabrics.

You can also choose from a range of high-quality legs when customising your footstool. They’re available in different styles and sizes, and often made with mahogany wood which is resilient to wear and tear, thanks to its varnished coating. They’re designed to withstand support as you enjoy many cups of tea and rest your feet on the footstool, for many years to come!

We ordered and paid for 2 footstools of idential design, and was told to expect delivery in a week or less. One has arrived, but more than 2 weeks later there is no news of the second, despite my chasing. What is happening?

Very pleased with our stools. We closed the real leather in tan colour which mat he'd the wood on our chairs. They are well made and lightweight. Was able to talk to the company and obtain a leather sample. Delivery was in two weeks.

We purchased this stool as a gift for our daughter and she’s absolutely delighted with the quality of product, material and depth of colour. The order process was simple and the price was super-competitive. We did have a slight issue with delivery (through no fault of Footstools Direct) but can honestly say that from initial contact to resolution, the customer service received was commendable! Footstools Direct is certainly a company we will be using again and pleased to recommend.

All positive. Great choice of fabric. Great choice of sizes. Different leg heights too. I bought two. Delivered on time. They look well made, but I suppose only time will tell. I'm pretty confident!
