About the Item
Art Deco Boat Stools, wood and brass, Italy, 1930s
This rare Art Deco stool, dating from the 1930s, features a striking combination of sculptural elegance and nautical functionality. Originally designed for use on boats, it embodies the streamlined aesthetic of the period with a flared conical brass base and a rounded wooden seat. The robust construction ensured stability at sea, while the refined materials highlight the sophisticated craftsmanship typical of the era.
Its silhouette resonates with the modernist pursuit of essential forms, recalling the contemporaneous works of Jean-Michel Frank and Jacques Adnet, where luxurious materials met pared-down geometry.
A rare and collectible example of Art Deco maritime design.

French Sculptural Primitive Stools, wood, 1960, set of fourteen.
This collection of hand-carved stools originates from rural France, dating from the 1960s. Each piece is a microcosm of functional imperfection: uneven seat planes, worn edges, and visible traces of daily use. The shapes vary — triangular, circular, hexagonal — yet all share a radical simplicity shaped by vernacular construction logic.
The solid wood, often untreated or minimally finished, retains its raw tactility: lines, knots, and deep grain patterns interact with the instinctive geometry of their build creating balance from imperfection. The three splayed legs, inserted directly into the seat, ensure stability on uneven ground, a utilitarian solution that becomes a formal language.
