Set of 4 vintage Tam Tam stools designed by Henry Massonnet in 1968. This stool was manufactured by Stamp and has become a symbol of affordable pop art design. Originally designed as a practical and portable stool for fishermen, it offered storage space under the seat, while its conical shape ensured stability while fishing. Made of polypropylene, it is lightweight and therefore easy to transport. Its immense success came in 1969 when a photo appeared in the magazine Ici Paris showing Brigitte Bardot with several Tam Tams in her living room. The stool became a cult object and, barely a year later, was added to the collection of the Museum of Modern Art. Undoubtedly, a fun and practical design icon! The signature is present underneath. These stools are in beautiful vintage condition with no discolouration or cracks. However, they do have significant scratches and some stains.
