Description from the seller
It is a mid-20th-century vintage stool that stands out for the visual impact of its turquoise blue, a vibrant color that at the time was starting to illuminate modern interiors without being loud. The upholstery, with its special geometric-relief textile, creates a tactile and luminous play: tiny cells that trap the light, cast soft shadows, and transform the surface into something more than just a seat. That type of fabric, halfway between decorative and functional, was highly valued in the fifties and sixties for its durability and sculptural presence.
The wooden frame, hidden beneath the upholstery’s volume, provides stability and warmth. It doesn’t seek the spotlight, but it supports the piece with the solid, well-made character typical of furniture from that era. The whole has that distinctive mid-century mix: clean lines, expressive color, honest materials, and a design touch that turns a everyday object into a small decorative accent.
It is a stool designed to accompany, to add a splash of color and texture, to introduce a modern gesture into a room without breaking the harmony. A piece that, despite its simplicity, has character and presence.
Tracked shipping and secure packaging.
