Original set of 2 bar stools by Frida Minet and Adrien Audoux, 1950s, France

This rare pair of bar stools is an excellent example of French mid-century design by Adrien Audoux and Frida Minet. Crafted in the 1950s, these designs combine a modern, minimalist aesthetic with the rustic charm of southern France. The striking design is characterized by an exciting mix of materials: the seat is made of thick, circularly woven reed or rope, providing a texturally interesting surface and a natural look. The frame features dark-stained oak legs and functional iron rings, creating a strong contrast to the light seat. The tripod construction ensures stability. As antique pieces, they show a characterful patina and age-related signs of wear, adding to their vintage charm. They are sturdy, functional, and ready for immediate use in upscale interiors or a home bar. Condition: Used, see photos; wood chipped more severely in one spot; signs of wear all over.
