About the Item
Throughout the 20th century, Scandinavian designers developed a reputation for their devotion to honest materials, functional forms, and a deep respect for traditional craftsmanship. Norwegian furniture makers in particular often took cues from rural design, interpreting it through a modern lens to create pieces that balanced simplicity and comfort. Krogenæs, a Norwegian workshop, embraced these high-quality, yet utilitarian values in their design language and material choices. This pair of stools reflects this commitment with clarity and character.
These low stools feature sturdy, solid oak bases with gently tapered legs and stretchers that reinforce stability while also adding a subtle rhythm to the silhouette. The wood has been left with a natural finish that highlights its warm tone and visible grain. Resting atop each base is a generously padded seat upholstered in soft off-white sheepskin, giving the pieces an inviting texture and a tactile contrast to the structured frame beneath. The sheepskin not only softens the profile but also offers comfort and warmth, both physically and aesthetically. Stools have long been versatile furnishings, used across cultures and eras in functional and decorative ways. In the Scandinavian context, they often served as multi-purpose pieces: footrests, extra seating, or even small tables. The low height of these stools, paired with their plush tops, makes them ideal as ottomans or casual seating options that add an organic softness to an interior. Their modest scale allows them to be moved easily, fitting neatly into both small and open-plan spaces.
This pair captures the essence of Norwegian design in its purest form: practical, beautifully made, and inherently charming. Whether used on their own or paired with a lounge chair, these stools bring a grounded, natural quality to any space.
