Set of 3 Stools in Fiber Cement, Unknown, 1960s

$ 3,750
  • Description
    Attributed to an unknown designer and produced in the 1960s, this set of three fiberglass stools reflects a period of sustained experimentation with synthetic materials and sculptural form. Emerging at a moment when designers were actively exploring alternatives to traditional wood and metal, the group exemplifies the mid-century shift toward plastics as a means of achieving new structural and visual possibilities.

    Each stool is defined by a compact cylindrical volume articulated by pierced apertures of varying shape and scale. This interplay of void and mass introduces rhythm and lightness while preserving structural clarity. Repetition across the set reinforces a disciplined geometric logic, allowing the stools to register as both functional objects and sculptural forms.

    Executed in molded fiberglass, the stools reflect material integrity and restraint, with form prioritized over decoration. The strength of the material enables the open geometry without added reinforcement, while the perforations reduce visual weight and facilitate handling. The construction supports use in both interior and exterior environments, integrating function directly into the design.

    Originating from a private collection, the stools are presented in excellent vintage condition, with wear consistent with age and use. Thoughtfully resolved and materially honest, this set articulates the spirit of mid-century experimentation and stands as a considered addition to serious collections and refined interiors.
