The Íkonos dressing table stool is the prototype for a piece in a collection that was never put into production, so it's unique. I've called it a "dressing table" stool because I think that that's likely to give you an instant clue to its scale, but don't imagine that it should be confined to your dressing room – I've used it elsewhere too, as you'll see in the photos.
Its seat is 22" wide and 16" front-to-back, and it's 17" tall at the lowest point of its curve.
It's made out of Cedrela odorata (Spanish cedar), which is a species that thrives in Central America and northern South America. It grows so prolifically that it's often used in reforestation projects. These days it's far more responsible than teak – plantation grown teak is not very high quality and wild grown is now an over-harvested threatened species.
The tops of the legs are mortised to receive tenons rising from the frame's stretchers. That's not just inlays that you see!
I have signed this piece with my own hand on the bottom side of the seat.
