Rook Stool 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.
