I receive quite a few emails asking where to find Moroccan poufs similar to the ones here. One source I've not mentioned before is Plantation in L.A. This shop carries handmade ottomans in an array of colorful leathers. The poufs are 15" high by 19" in diameter and cost $245. Samples are shown below.

Update 9.6.07
Pieces in Atlanta now sells the colorful poufs too.

I must add a poof to my b-day list! It looks like a great thing to have...adds an extra seat, but kind of looks like an accessory. Great find!
i was thinking of doing a post on poofs! i want a beat-up metallic one!
I blogged colorful poufs not too long ago, and found a bunch of cute ones for less than $185. Listed here:

Leah,
Thanks for the tip!
Oh, I just don't think I'll ever get sick of them...they are just perfect and so colorful! I love the idea of having a casual get together and having people surrounded by a coffee table some on poufs others on furniture...love it! Great post Courtney :)

I like the pink pouf!
When I was at John Derian in NYC, they had a whole selection of gorgeous ones!
Hi Style,
Another great place for ethnic Poufs is MARRAKECH EXPRESS 2515 S. ROBERTSON BLVD, 310.836.8485 ASK FOR NAJIB, he also has fantastic lanterns.
Jordan,
Thanks for the tip!
Fairfax,
Yes John Derian has great colors!
hand raising very slowly....um, i don't love the pouf.
there. i said it. i don't hate it. i just don't love it.
seems like you have plenty of resources, but someone posted on Tazi Designs a while ago - they have a big selection of colors.
I do love them...still, even after all these years living in Morocco.
Maryam,
That says a lot! Nice to hear :)
I saw some faux leather poofs at Target the other day for $39.99.
I just love a good pouf! If you have kids, they come in especially handy!
you can also get them on ebay usually for around $100.
I had some BEAUTIFUL Poufs shipped to my client from Tazi Designs.
