A pair of solid fir stools, made in Italy in the 1960s in the style of Charlotte Perriand's Alpine stools for Méribel and Les Arcs. These pieces fit perfectly into the post-World War II rustic-modern design trend, characterized by essential shapes, functionality, and the use of natural materials.
The stools feature a full circular seat supported by three slightly flared cylindrical legs, joined with traditional mortise and tenon joints. The construction is solid and authentic, with exposed joints that emphasize the artisanal nature of the piece. The fir wood displays a warm honey-colored patina, with grain, knots, and slight color variations that make each piece unique and reflect the natural aging of the material over time.
Versatile and functional, these stools can be used as seats, side tables, or decorative elements in modern, rustic, or minimalist settings. Their compact size and timeless design make them suitable for both residential and contract spaces. Made in Italy in the 1960s, they represent a coherent example of furniture inspired by Alpine culture, reinterpreted with a modern twist.
The condition is good and consistent with its age and use, with surface marks, small abrasions, and natural wood knots. The structure is stable and solid, and the original patina contributes to the overall vintage charm.
