Circa 1950s, the piece measures 38 cm in width and depth, standing 53 cm tall—a compact, versatile dimension that integrates effortlessly into a variety of living, working, or hospitality interiors. The frame is meticulously crafted from light-toned beechwood, celebrated for its warm grain and resilience. Each leg tapers subtly toward the floor, joined by chamfered stretchers that form a discreet geometric support beneath the seat. The subtle patina and slight variations in tone highlight the natural qualities of beechwood, ensuring that this stool carries authentic character and an organic warmth. Topping the frame is a generously padded seat, newly reupholstered in a cream-colored teddy bouclé. This soft, nubby texture introduces a tactile contrast to the linear simplicity of the beechwood. The neutral bouclé hue plays beautifully against the wood’s honeyed undertones, making the piece equally at home in minimalist, Scandinavian-inspired settings or more eclectic, layered interiors. The plush seat offers comfort without sacrificing the clean, functional silhouette synonymous with midcentury aesthetics. The stool’s restrained profile and modest scale make it highly adaptable: use it as a vanity stool, a piano bench, an impromptu side table in a living area, or a casual seat at a bedside or entryway. Its solid beechwood construction ensures both stability and longevity, allowing this stool to perform as both a practical seating solution and an artful accent piece. A quintessential example of midcentury design, this teddy-upholstered beechwood stool marries textural warmth with structural clarity. Offered as a single unit, it’s an ideal acquisition for collectors, designers, and aficionados of vintage modern furnishings seeking a piece that balances period authenticity with everyday functionality.
