About this seller
ProfessionalProduct description
As if a 70s interior design magazine suddenly came to life.
This original EMSA storage stool combines futuristic Space Age shapes with a wonderfully soft moss-green faux fur seat cushion. Practical? Certainly. But above all: absurdly cozy.
Some vintage pieces try to be stylish.
This one *is* simply stylish without any effort.
Original EMSA storage stool / laundry basket from West Germany, produced in the 70s. The iconic oval openings and rounded shape give it that typical Space Age look that retro interior lovers are currently completely in love with.
And then that green faux fur cushion on top…
As if a 70s lounge bar and a Scandinavian design hotel had a child together. Perfect as:
storage stool
ottoman
laundry basket
extra seat
bedside storage
playful accent piece in an eclectic interior
It works surprisingly well in:
mid-century interiors
dopamine decor
postmodern styling
vintage children's rooms
creative studios
minimalist spaces that can afford to be just a little less conventional
The lid/cushion is removable so that the interior remains fully usable for storing blankets, toys, laundry, or other clutter you prefer to hide stylishly.
