Description from the seller

Vintage Driepoot kruk – In the style of Jean Prouvé, ca. 1950

A beautiful and original example of mid-century industrial design.
This iconic three-legged stool embodies the functional and minimalist aesthetics that are so characteristic.
This style of stool was designed and produced around 1950 for institutional use, including schools and universities.

Seat: Solid wooden seat with a beautiful, well-worn patina that accentuates the object's historical character.

Base: Three sturdy, slender legs of black-painted steel tubing, equipped with the original protective caps on the underside.

Minimalism: The three-legged design provides perfect stability and a timeless, industrial look.

The stool is in a nice, authentic vintage condition with visible signs of use commensurate with its age. The paint on the steel legs shows a naturally lived-in character (patina), which contributes to the charm and authenticity of this collectible object.
Constructively, the stool is fully functional and stable.

Note: Please examine the photos carefully; they form an essential part of the description.
