Cork Stool’s shape was inspired by the material it is made of. Eco-friendly, highly endurable and very light, cork still seems underexploited in furniture design. The stool’s simple, well-balanced, geometric form corresponds perfectly with its function. Shades of brown will warm up any interior and the material used is a guarantee that this one will serve generations. Available in natural or dark cork.
