This “working”stool was designed by the artist for use in his shop. The 10½” x 18 ¼” footprint makes it perfect to tuck under a countertop for occasional extra seating, although you may find yourself gravitating to it for its comfort and portability.

The cherry stretchers are steam bent, square pegged on one end and key wedged on the other. Shown at 30″h, the stool may be custom-fitted to buyers’ height.

The sculpted cherry saddle seat reveals the triangular maple through tenons, secured by offset rosewood wedges.
