Two Mid-Century Modern Storage Items in the style of Lloyd Loom - A group of two mid-20th century storage pieces.

It features a hinged lid with braided trim around the edges and a central turned wooden peg handle. The second item is a horizontal storage ottoman or blanket chest. The body is upholstered in a pink woven fabric and is raised on four black-finished metal hairpin legs. The hinged lid consists of a white-painted wooden frame with a padded top upholstered in a floral patterned fabric featuring multi-coloured sprigs on a cream ground.
