Set of 2 S13A Stools old version by Pierre Chapo in Elm, France, 1970's
-
Description
This stool is a striking example of Pierre Chapo's craftsmanship, featuring the S13a model from the 1970s, made in France. Crafted from solid elm, the stool exudes a timeless elegance with its natural wood grain, highlighted by the smooth, rounded seat. The design is both simple and functional, with three angled legs that provide a stable base while adding to the stool’s distinctive aesthetic.
Over the years, the stool has developed a beautiful, warm patina, giving it a rich character and unique charm. This natural aging process enhances the wood’s deep, earthy tones and can only be accomplished by decades of light exposure. Pierre Chapo, a French designer known for his deep appreciation of wood and craftsmanship, was heavily inspired by traditional joinery techniques and the work of architects like Le Corbusier. Notably, the signature rectangular joint in the seating—a hallmark of his work—demonstrates his precise and innovative approach to design. This stool perfectly reflects Chapo's mastery in combining simplicity, functionality, and the beauty of natural materials.
