This is a striking vintage woven stool that beautifully combines utilitarian design with a touch of Mid-Century Modern charm. Dating from around the 1960s–1970s, it featurex a simple square frame made from solid wood that has been painted in a glossy black finish. The seat ix woven from strong cord or rope in a bold pink tone, arranged in a lattice pattern that gives both strength and visual appeal. The angular lines of the frame paired with the colourful woven top makes it a piece which sits comfortably between rustic handcraft and modernist design.
The stool shows age-appropriate wear consistent with its decades of use. The woven seat remains strong and intact, though the surface is faded and has light discolouration which adds character and charm, but is not as bold as the original; occasional markings on the seat too. The black-painted frame also has small scuffs and marks, particularly around the feet, which do not detract from its overall stability or charm but instead give it a well-loved vintage feel - you can see the quality rich brown wood under the paint. Structurally, it is still solid and sturdy, ready for continued use.
This versatile piece can serve as small stool, side table, or even as decorative plant stand. The compact proportions makes it especially useful in smaller spaces, while the once bold colour and handcrafted quality ensure it stands out as a conversation piece. It would suit interiors styled with Mid-Century, Bohemian, eclectic, or retro design sensibilities.
This stool is super vintage accent for a 21st century home - great in a child's bedorom, playroom, kitchen, garden etc. Perfect as extra perch. Can be refurbed back to incredible design if you so wish or left as is. An affordable way to introduce authentic mid-20th century character into a home.
