About the Item

Vintage XL leather rhinoceros decorative footstool designed by Dimitri Omersa for Abercrombie and Fitch, circa 1960s is hand-stitched and features aged leather. This Charming fellow is huge-much bigger than I expected. It measures 20" T x 45" L x 10" D and the seat height is 16" T. The horn, tail, and eyes are intact. The vintage leather footstool is in fantastic vintage condition, looks like it was never used. These Dimitri Omersa animal footstools are highly sought after and often collected. This one is a true Gem indeed! From 1927 through 1950 leather pigs using scrap leather from handmade luggage were made by "Old Bill" for the department store Liberty of London. Around 1958 the business was transferred to Dimitri Omersa when Old Bill retired, and it was at this time that Dimitri came up with the ideas for other leather animals. Around 1963 Dimitri's leather animals caught the eye of Abercrombie and Fitch, at that time purveyor to the fantasies of the rich and famous. The animals were advertised in the A&F catalogue from the mid 1960’s through to the late 1980’s.
