This French stool from the late 1960s and early 1970s exemplifies pared-down industrial design, where form follows function with purposeful restraint. The structure is based on four cylindrical, solid wooden legs in a warm, medium brown shade with a semi-matte finish. The round seat, crafted from the same wood, maintains a cohesive colour palette and proportions characteristic of the mid-century era. A distinctive feature is the circular metal footrest—chrome or nickel-plated—which connects the legs, providing stability and a subtle contrast to the wooden silhouette. Visible construction joints highlight the utilitarian nature of the piece. The stool is in good vintage condition: its surfaces show minor signs of wear and a natural patina, with no significant damage or repairs. The design speaks in the voice of French modernism, which in the 1960s and 70s championed material honesty and expressive simplicity. The wooden elements—devoid of unnecessary ornamentation—still resonate with rawness and authenticity. The metal footrest catches the light like an industrial accent, recalling a time when functionality and durability defined the style. Each mark or scuff serves as a trace of its history, without detracting from the original design intent. The stool may be used as a high counter seat or as an auxiliary piece in a living room or kitchen styled with industrial, loft, or eclectic influences. It can be paired with a solid wood table, steel lighting, or minimalist accessories. The piece works well alongside concrete flooring, thickly textured fabrics, and ceramics in subdued hues—fitting seamlessly in both residential and creative studio spaces. The stool stands 70 cm high, with a seat diameter of 35 cm. It is constructed from solid wood with a metal footrest. Surfaces should be cleaned with a soft
