Brutalist tripod stool in solid wood, signed Gilson – 1950s

A charming vintage tripod stool in the Brutalist style, handcrafted in Belgium and signed Gilson. This piece, with its deliberately simple design and strong sculptural presence, embodies a rustic modernist aesthetic typical of the 1950s and 60s. Made of solid wood, it features a thick seat resting on three slightly flared legs, assembled using traditional techniques (exposed dowels). The piece demonstrates true craftsmanship, where function dictates form. It is in excellent condition, with signs of age and use consistent with its age, particularly visible on the wood, but without any structural weaknesses or defects. These marks contribute fully to its charm and authenticity. Seat diameter: 27.5 cm - Weight: 2.9 kg -.
