About the Item

Handcrafted Eternit footstool or Hocker designed by Ludwig Walser in 1959, introduced during the horticultural exhibition in Zürich in that same year.

Please note a small crack on the underside that has formed over the year due to weather impact. This does not impact its structure: The hocker remains stable and is ready for daily use.
