About the Item
Rustic Ash Tripod Stool, France, 1950s
A charming and authentic French mid-century rustic tripod stool crafted in the 1950s. This sculptural piece, carved from solid ash, exemplifies the simple beauty and enduring appeal of rural artisan furniture. With its organic silhouette and natural patina, this stool stands as a perfect example of honest material use and understated craftsmanship.
The hand-shaped seat is subtly concave, ensuring comfort, while the three splayed legs give it visual lightness and stable footing. Each leg is tapered and dowel-jointed into the seat with visible skill, demonstrating traditional joinery techniques. The asymmetrical shape of the seat and the slightly irregular legs highlight its handmade nature—no two are exactly alike.
The aged ash wood has developed a warm, amber hue with visible grain patterns, knots, and signs of use that only add to its authenticity. This patina speaks to decades of gentle wear and brings a sense of history and tactility to any space.
Ideal as an accent piece, side stool, or even a low display pedestal, this stool is highly versatile. Whether placed in a modern, rustic, or Wabi-Sabi-inspired interior, it will offer warmth and visual texture. These stools are increasingly sought-after for their sculptural presence and natural elegance.
In good original condition, showing typical signs of age and use consistent with its vintage—minor scuffs, slight color variations, and surface marks, all of which contribute to its authentic vintage charm.
We currently offer multiple pieces in similar style and proportion, each with its own unique grain pattern and character. Please inquire for group photos or curated sets.
