This light wood farm stool brings a countryside touch full of sobriety, with a discreet and warm presence. Its low seat and elongated format allow it to slip into a kitchen, next to a console, or at the foot of a bed, depending on how it is intended to be used. Sourced for its natural material and patina, it is willingly used as a footrest, an extra seat, or simply as a support for a vase, a book, or a candle. Placed in an entryway with a lamp on top and a bouquet of wildflowers, it creates a soft and authentic scene. Width: 41 cm Depth: 27 cm Height: 30 cm A Brief History of the Stool The oldest seat in history, the stool is the direct ancestor of the chair, distinguished by its lack of backrest and armrests. In the Middle Ages, it was the universal seat of the people, while in 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 moved with a gesture. Whether rustic wooden or industrial style, it embodies the ultimate space-saving furniture today, providing an extra seat that never clutters the view.
