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. This footstool is considered a complement to the loop chairs by Willy Guhl, they are made of the same material and form a nice ensemble when paired. Our version originates from the 1960s, with light touches of patina that has built up over the years. Origination: Switzerland, 1960s Condition: Vintage with patina. 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.
