Mid 20th Century English Leather Dimitri Omersa Donkey Figure Footstool

About the Item

Dimitri Omersa Donkey Leather Footstool, England, 1960s-70s The charming brown leather model of a donkey made by Dimitri Omersa is in good condition with light signs of use and age. This donkey is covered in beautifully aged brown leather. Dimitri Omersa wanted to expand the business and so took the animals to North America. In 1963 he entered the new donkey in the Californian State Fair and won a Gold medal. The animals caught the eye of Abercrombie and Fitch, at that time purveyor to the fantasies of the rich and famous, who sold the animals from the mid-1960s through to the late 1980s. Since then the animals have developed a significant following in the USA,
