Molded Plastic Eiffel Stool with Wood Legs

The Yvonne Potter Timber Stool is incredibly minimalist. It features a backless design with a metal sled base and a sleek plywood seat. The wood is shaped into a slight curve for added comfort.
Bertoia Stool
The Bertoia Stool is another variation on an original mid-century modern chair created by famous designer Harry Bertoia in the 1950s. This design has a retro diner feel to it. It is made from wire metal and comes with a thin seat pad. Many buyers of this stool rant and rave about its comfort for being made entirely of metal (aside from the pad, of course!)
Bastille Stool
The Bastille Stool might be the most well-known and recognized stool of them all. You probably have seen one of these variations in a friends house or in a popular restaurant / café. The original chair, named the Tolix chair, was created by another famous mid-century modern designer, Xavier Pauchard. Numerous variations of these stool can be found. Some feature high-backrests, low-backrests and backless. One thing they all have in common – they are made from galvanized steel.

Similar to the Sigfred Stool, it comes in a choice of distressed “vintage” vegan leather. The seats come padded and the legs are made of black-powdered coated metal.
