Strut Stool

Avant-garde and abundantly classy, the Strut unites a purity of line and angle. Strut marries punk rock spirit, a striking stance, and composed proportions for a standout form.

Strut’s angled back leg leads the eye up to the piece’s immediately recognizable compression-set upholstered arm. Where the arm terminates at the back, waterfall woodgrain sweeps back to its origin.
