- ZEHNFINGER Schwarz is a very personal furniture concept by designer Daniel Heilig. He was inspired by his passion for sneakers, the fascination with the Triple Black colorway, as well as designer Yohji Yamamoto and his legendary, playfully rebellious approach to elegant, deep-dark All Black.

ZEHNFINGER combines originality, modern minimalism and sculptural furniture design. Slender rounded arches, elegant proportions and symmetrical balance give the stool an aura of relaxed nobility. The color scheme and the vertical lines of the body, finger columns, oak grain and the high upholstery radiate meditative clarity. As a design solitaire, ZEHNFINGER brings the aesthetics of classical architecture into demanding interiors.

Inspired by the iconic arches of the Obidos Aqueduct in Portugal, the stool architecture of ZEHNFINGER interprets monumental column-building craft in a surprisingly new way. In the handcrafted, exquisitely constructed solid-wood core, two arches rhythmically contrast with two closed sides. Depending on the light, column shadows wander through the room.

Firmly anchored in the core sits the comfortable, hand-sewn fabric upholstery. Quality in detail and timeless design make the ZEHNFINGER stool a beloved life companion.
