Blue Industrial Stool
Code: 2607011Product detailed description
Blue industrial stool probably made in the 1970s. The idea of using a pressed sheet-metal tractor seat as a standalone design element was first popularised by brothers Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni in 1957 with their famous Mezzadro stool. This idea was taken up in the 1970s and 1980s by a wave of postmodern and industrial design, which began incorporating factory and agricultural elements into modern interiors, studios, and lofts.
This stool has legs made from bent steel tubing with plastic glides, and a perforated seat made from pressed sheet metal. The entire stool is painted deep blue, except for the steel rod connecting the two legs. The contoured seat provides comfortable long-term seating. The legs have a pleasant spring to them. We have thoroughly cleaned the chair and it is in good original condition. However, the original paint is flaking in a few places and the chair has a visible patina.
