A stool with four quadrangular legs, connected by offset cylindrical struts that enliven the structure with a subtle rhythm. Designed by Charlotte Perriand as part of her interior design and equipment project for the La Pierra Menta building in Les Arcs, it demonstrates her desire to combine robustness and simplicity in furniture designed for communal living in the mountains.

Made in 1979, this stool comes from a fully furnished apartment at La Pierra Menta. It is therefore a rare piece, preserved in its original context, and faithfully reflects Perriand's overall vision for the resort.
