About the Item

Probably a piece of French folk art, this solid wood tripod stool was likely crafted as a traditional shepherd’s seat. The thick, hand-carved seat rests on three tapered legs, combining rustic craftsmanship with a striking brutalist presence. The preserved knots and irregularities of the wood highlight its authentic, organic character. A sculptural and versatile piece that can serve as a stool, pedestal, or side table.
