Folding Stool, Light Ash

Ash, steel, and canvas—this folding stool from Departo blends them all into an effortlessly elegant yet utilitarian design. These materials are not only supremely durable, they look stylish and dynamic too, putting a modern spin on turn-of-the-century campaign furniture. Weighing in at just 4.4 lbs and complete with a convenient leather carrying handle, who said lightness and portability required a compromise in looks?

Departo was born out of a partnership between famed design firm Yabu Pushelberg and furniture maker Stellar Works. Across every category—ceramic, glass, textile, metal, and accessories—each of their products is a testament to their unwavering commitment to quality and their radical vision for elevated design—without the elevated price.
