Haiku Stool

A Masterpiece of Japanese Modern Design

The Haiku Stool represents the perfect fusion of Eastern aesthetics and Western modernism. Inspired by Sori Yanagi’s iconic Butterfly Stool, this piece captures the essence of post-war Japanese design with its graceful curves and innovative use of bent plywood. Each stool is a testament to simplicity and functionality, featuring premium maple or palisander wood shaped into flowing curves that appear to defy gravity.

The elegant brass-finished connector not only joins the symmetrical wood pieces but adds a sophisticated accent that complements both wood finish options.

UV-Cured Polyurethane Finish
A protective UV-cured polyurethane coating enhances the natural beauty of the wood while ensuring durability and resistance to daily wear.
