Bonacina bamboo and cane stool, Italy, 1960s

$ 2,184
  • Description
    A distinctive organic-design stool in wicker and bent bamboo, produced by Bonacina, Italy, 1960s

    A versatile addition to any interior, a service stool proves useful in both living areas and bedrooms—whether as a casual seat for a moment’s rest or as a graceful solution when an unexpected guest arrives. This particular piece, however, goes beyond utility. Its striking design, crafted from a sequence of bent bamboo and wicker rods, forms a sculptural silhouette with an almost organic presence.

    Could it be a mushroom sprouting from the forest floor? Or a silent, otherworldly lifeform emerging from the ocean depths? Its evocative shape invites the imagination to wander.

    The piece owes its unique character to the craftsmanship of Bonacina, a renowned Italian manufacturer active since the early 20th century, and a key figure in the artistic evolution of natural-fibre furnishings. This stool, produced around the 1960s, is a testament to Bonacina’s ability to blend traditional weaving techniques with the vision of some of the finest designers of the modern era.

    Is there a corner in your home for this small yet distinguished object?
