In the Middle Ages, it was the universal seat of the people, while among the nobility, the "right to a 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 it’s from a farmhouse in raw wood or of industrial style, it today embodies the quintessential space-saving furniture, offering extra seating that never clutters the view.
