Pine stool by René Martin, 1960s design

Pine stool designed by René Martin, nicknamed "René the Scissors." A renowned cabinetmaker, he collaborated with Charlotte Perriand on ski resort projects in Les Arcs and Méribel in the French Alps. The stool features a four-legged base with rounded, log-like legs supporting a thick, circular seat. Its clean, functional design perfectly showcases René Martin's refined craftsmanship and mid-century modern aesthetics. Provenance: Méribel, circa 1965.
