AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A sculptural stool that transcends the simple function of a seat to become a true work of art. Entirely hand-carved from a single, imposing block of teak wood, this piece pays homage to 20th-century surrealist design.

The mastery of the carving is evident in the fluidity of the fingers, which rise elegantly to form the backrest, and in the ergonomic curve of the palm, designed to cradle the seat naturally. The solid, earthy base provides stability and a strong primitive-modern character.

The wood features a white "decapata" finish that enhances its natural grain and gives it a rustic-chic yet modern touch at the same time. Being an artisanal piece in live wood, there are small irregularities and natural grains that attest to its authenticity and the piece’s uniqueness.

Dimensions: Height: 90 cm
Width: 41 cm
Depth: 38 cm
