This black wooden stool, inspired by country style, adds a vintage and understated touch to an interior. Its square shape allows it to easily fit next to a side table, in an entryway, or as additional seating in the living room, depending on daily needs. The black wood emphasizes a discreet yet refined presence, easy to pair with a rattan chair, an antique bench, or a weathered wooden table. One can also envision it near a wall, with a few books placed on top or a nearby table lamp. As a second-hand piece, it carries the memory of its past: a few traces of time. Length: 32 cm, Width: 31 cm, Height: 45 cm. A Brief History of the Stool: The oldest seat in history, the stool is the direct ancestor of the chair, distinguished by the absence of a backrest and armrests. In the Middle Ages, it was the universal seat of the common people, while among the nobility, the “right to the stool” became a highly codified court privilege, allowing ladies to sit in the presence of the king. Its structure, resting on three or four legs, is a feat of stability and lightness, designed to be slid under a table or easily moved with a single gesture. Whether made of raw wood from a farm or in an industrial style, it embodies today’s ideal space-saving furniture, offering additional seating that never clutters the view.
