Pebble Stool / Warm Nordic

Softly rounded to the top with a uniquely set geometric leg structure, this is a brave design we have not come across before. The design of the Pebble Stool is inspired by pebbles found on the beach, which even after centuries of grinding by the ocean are never perfectly rounded. In the same way, the seats on Pebble are slightly asymmetrical and organic with no two exactly alike.

Available in 65cm and 76cm heights, ash, stain options.

Pebble Stool

The design of the Pebble Stool is inspired by pebbles found on the beach, which even after centuries of grinding by the ocean are never perfectly rounded. In the same way, the seats on Pebble are slightly asymmetrical and organic with no two exactly alike.

With its highly organic shape and wonderful finish, Pebble’s seat invites you to touch it and is testament to a proud Scandinavian tradition of top-quality craftsmanship. Pebble comes in three heights for a variety of uses.

1960 Barchair / Rex Kralj

A supremely understated look with a Scandinavian feel, the 1960 Barchair is a new take on the angular design of Niko Kralj's iconic 1960 Chair. It comes in two heights and offers the ultimate in comfort for bars and kitchens. The sturdy metal frame allows for intensive use. The seat and backrest possess an aesthetically appealing curved shape, which makes the 1960 Barchair very likeable and highly adaptable.

Available in 65cm and 75cm heights, black or oak

Mosquito Stool / Rex Kralj

Bart Schilder drew his inspiration from the strong graphic appeal of the wing-like seat and angular legs of the Mosquito Chair to design a new barstool. With the same split seat design and clever construction, this stool is a unique piece for hospitality and home environments.

Available in 65cm and 75cm heights, oak, black or walnut finishes.

Since day one, I’ve hoped people would feel inspired by my work.

Utility Counter Stool / Originally custom-built as seating for the team of designers in 1956 when sketching in the factory at Ercol, which recently celebrated its centenary year. Today, some seventy years later, the stool remains a favourite. A soft rounded seat and elegant, tapered legs feature the iconic Windsor joint — a trademark detail found in many of Lucian Ercolani’s early works.

In this classic technique, the stool’s legs are extended through the seat and secured with a wedge. These joints are then sanded until they lie flush with the seat to create an incredibly durable, reinforced base, built to withstand the wear and tear of everyday use.

Available in 65cm or 75cm heights and a range of stain options.

Lara Stool / We have been impressed with the design and durability of the Lara designs by Dylan Freeth for L. Ercolani and the beautiful aging that happens with the natural ash timber. A gently curved backrest allows users to recline comfortably, while a curled dish seat offers much-needed ergonomic support.

Available in 65cm or 75cm heights and a range of stain options.

Be My Guest Stool / Designed by an emerging talent, Danish born Charlotte Høncke, the Be My Guest series has an effortless quality with rattan and steel materials used in a geometric, considered way.

Tokyo Stool / With an intriguing provenance, these stools were designed for the 'Groucho Club' in 1985 by Rodney Kinsman. The slim, linear form of the Tokyo Stool looks incredible with the repetition of shapes across a bar.
