Rook is a considered collection of stools, subtly inspired by the
decorative forms of traditional chess pieces. The diverging timber
uprights interplay with the horizontal footrest, encapsulating and
supporting the element. The steel skeleton within the solid timber
form, minimises the overall silhouette, celebrating the beautiful
marriage of natural solid timber and Australian craftsmanship.
The gently radiused curves of the seat and leg provide a
consistent element throughout the range. Presented in solid
walnut, white oak and blackened oak with base and footrest
finished to textured black. Made and assembled in Australia and
available in three heights to suit a range of indoor contexts.
