Length: 34 cm Width: 20 cm Height: 45 cm A Brief History of the Stool As the oldest form of seating 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 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 easily slid under a table or moved with a single gesture. Whether made of raw wood or in an industrial style, it embodies the ultimate space-saving furniture today, providing extra seating that never clutters the eye.
