ABOUT PRODUCTID 20189
The Tulipan stool, designed by Jindřich Halabala in 1950s Czechoslovakia, is a notable example of mid-century modern design with subtle art deco references. Its construction features a compact, harmonious seat formed by four rounded, petal-like upholstered segments converging at the top, evoking the shape of a blossoming tulip. The upholstery is made from wool fabric in a deep, matte red, interwoven with a fine irregular black pattern that adds a dynamic, tactile quality. Carefully executed seams between segments highlight the artisanal craftsmanship. The base rests on three bent wooden legs in a natural light brown tone, displaying visible patina and gentle scuffs, characteristic of original, unrestored vintage wood. The overall proportions are soft, inviting, and cohesive. Condition: the upholstery has been professionally restored and is free from damage or stains; the wooden base remains in original condition with discreet signs of age – the piece is in very good vintage condition.This stool seems to narrate the spirit of 1950s Czech design, where organic inspiration met the discipline of skilled craftsmanship. Its sculptural shape and tactile wool surface recall the inviting atmosphere of Central European interiors, blending comfort with subtle sophistication. The gentle patina on the wood hints at a history of everyday gatherings and moments of leisure, and now the piece stands ready to continue its story in a new setting.The Tulipan pouf can serve as a striking accent both in a mid-century modern living room and within an eclectic collector's interior. It may be paired with a low teak coffee table, a classic 1950s armchair, or combined with warm textiles and geometric patterns on cushions. The stool works well as a seat by a dressing table, next to a coffee table, or as a singular
