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 slipped under a table or moved with a gesture. Whether crafted from raw wood or in an industrial style, it embodies the ultimate space-saving furniture, providing an extra seat that never clutters the view.
