Kartell Bar Stool – Philippe Starck (2012) – Italian Design – Polycarbonate – Lancôme Customization

An elegant and distinctive Kartell bar stool, designed by Philippe Starck in 2012. An expression of contemporary Italian design, it is characterized by clean lines, harmonious forms, and a striking black-and-white color combination.
Made of white polycarbonate, it features a slender four-legged frame, a seat with regular geometric shapes, and a distinctive, slightly tilted oval backrest, enhanced by contrasting black graphic decoration against the white frame.
The lower crossbars serve as footrests, completing a balanced design in which function and aesthetics come together.
The stool bears the original Kartell mark embossed on the frame, identifying designer Philippe Starck and its Made in Italy production—an important detail for establishing the item's identity and authenticity. This particular piece features exclusive customization with stylized black graphics (the famous rose) and the luxury brand Lancôme logo on the edge. The Lancôme lettering on the front edge of the seat is quite faded but still recognizable.
PLEASE NOTE: The distinctive black graphic decoration on the backrest is made from removable vinyl adhesive film (wrapping), allowing the stool to be restored to its original all-white aesthetic (total white).
The buyer can therefore choose to keep the distinctive Lancôme customization or remove the decoration for a more understated, minimalist look.
Please note that the film has not been removed, and the condition of the surface underneath following any possible removal has not been checked.
This detail suggests the stool may have been used in exhibition, promotional, or commercial displays associated with the prestigious French cosmetics and perfume house, adding another layer of interest and originality.
