The orange Bo Tam stool, designed by Matteo Thun for Magis, is made of polypropylene and dates from 2000–2010.
Description from the seller
Splendid and iconic “Bo Tam” stool, designed by the celebrated architect and designer Matteo Thun in 2002 for the Italian company Magis.
This vintage design piece stands out for its clean, sculptural lines, clearly inspired by the shape of traditional African tribal headrests. Made of molded polyethylene in a vibrant, sought-after shade of orange, it is extremely versatile: it can be used as a stool, a side table, or simply as a decorative design object.
All the marks certifying its complete authenticity are embossed on the underside of the base: the “MAGIS made in Italy” logo, the words “design matteo thun,” the model name “bo tam,” and the conceptual, evocative text of the series (“tamtam tribal archetype...”).
