18”H x 21” D
Crafted in Owosso, Michigan, by Lee L. Woodard Sons, Inc., these sculptural Slatted Aluminum Stools represent a sophisticated intersection of mid-century industrialism and brutalist geometry. Designed by Herbert Saiger during the 1960s, the stools feature a definitive hourglass silhouette formed by a series of vertical, extruded aluminum bands that converge at a central waist to create a striking architectural profile. The brushed aluminum frames exhibit a storied, lived-in character, with honest pitting and surface wear that serve as a textured patina, underscoring their authentic vintage origins and structural durability. Each piece is crowned with a vibrant crimson seat featuring its original high-density urethane foam, a material choice that has allowed the iconic form to retain its supportive integrity over decades of use. These particular examples carry a distinct academic provenance, having been decommissioned from Texas Tech University, with several units still bearing original metal property tags and manufacturer "law tags" that authenticate their historical journey. Whether displayed as a singular, standalone work of art or arranged as a collective series, these stools remain a powerful testament to the optimistic, future-forward design language of the Space Age.
