Torii Stool
The Torii Stool by Bensen carries an arched wood backrest into bar- and counter-height seating.
Its solid oak, walnut or black-stained ash frame uses exposed mortise-and-tenon joints, with a metal foot rail protecting the wood beneath the seat. Fabric or leather upholstery adds a softer surface to the design, whose proportions draw inspiration from Japanese shrine gates.
Every detail, considered.
