Vintage 1960s Teak Flip-top Ottoman / Coffee Table by Cornwell Norton

A clever, dual purpose piece of furniture that was designed as part of a late sixties / early seventies range by Cornwell Norton, possibly for Parker Knoll. On one side it’s a black Formica coffee table but the table top can be flipped over to transform it into an ottoman to rest tired feet on in front of a favourite chair. It’s a nifty and unusual piece indeed. We have reupholstered the ottoman side and covered it in a smart, neutral charcoal tweed. A versatile piece with an unfussy, rather brutalist design, very much of its time, that will partner easily with other midcentury pieces or furniture from different eras.
