Restored reed rattan ottoman stool in white paint with iron hairpin legs. The stool was inspired by the Italian design coming up in the second half of the 20th century with its rounded stick rattan skeleton design but a distinctly American influence with the iron legs. It would be right at home in any Frankl/Mont Setting along with Boho chic like Betty Cobonpue, Franco Albini, and Gabriella Crespi.

Elevate your decor with our modern white reed rattan stool, a tribute to mid-century style. Crafted with meticulous detail, its airy design and clean lines evoke a timeless aesthetic. The perfect blend of comfort and sophistication, this stool adds a touch of retro-modern charm to any space.
