KAMUY Stool by CondeHouse - Japanese Modern Furniture

KAMUY Stool

This stool is designed to be of uniform height with the lounge chair, in order to create a sense of unity. It is also designed for ease of use and meant to be moved and arranged in many different ways. The legs, tapering off towards the end as they extend outwards from the top, give a feeling of security as well as a light, elegant impression. The beautifully curved surface of the cushioned, wide top provides comfort in sitting, allowing for hours of relaxation even when placed as a standalone piece. The smooth, round edges of the seat provide a beautiful reflection of light when upholstered in leather. Special attention was given to the corners to ensure a tight, detailed, light impression. The carefully sanded round wooden parts are smooth to the touch as a result of intricate care and handiwork.
