Ton’s Split Bentwood Stool

The Split Bentwood Stool was designed by Arik Levy in 2014. The Split Bentwood Stool is part of a complete series that includes an armchair, lounge chair, side chairs, and tables.  The series is based on the Czech’s expert ability to bend beechwood, a craft they have been carrying out for over 150 years.  In this design, Levy uses a contemporary shell and legs to form the chair.  The stool uses split bentwood at the point where the legs meet the seat, giving the stool an extremely unique high design appeal.

“To take the past and bring it to the future was my initial idea. All the products from this family were born from just one idea, the idea of bending – not in the way it is usually used, but to give it a new shape. In this case, the wood is divided into two parts and each part is bent in a different direction.” – Arik Levy
