Description from the seller
Stool - Beech - Folding stool
Designer folding stool – Icon of minimalist modern design – Solid beech wood
Object description:
Up for auction is a refined example of functional design from the 20th century. This folding stool perfectly embodies the standards of mid-century modernism, combining a rigorous aesthetic with an ingenious space-saving solution. This model stands out for its solid architectural structure and a smooth closing mechanism. The circular seat, carefully sanded, features the iconic through-hole, a detail that is not only aesthetic but functional, allowing the object to be carried or hung with extreme ease once folded.
main features:
• style: mid-century modern / minimalist.
• material: solid beech wood with natural wax finish, highlighting its warm grain.
