This is a vintage stool designed by Sori Yanagi in 1954 and the material is FRP (Fiber REinforced Plastic) which he was infulenced to use the material by Charles and Ray Eames.

This stool was reproduced in 2001 by Habitat (UK) and in 2004  Vitra Design Museum (US) reproduced this stool.

Because it was originally made for outdoor use, it is difficult to find the original one in good condition. We have two stools in ivory and two light blue now (as of April 28th) and both have scratches.

If you are interested in these stools and want to see more images for details, please contact us.

Once it's dried, cut the paper on side to remove out of the paper and paint.
