Know before you buy
The stool features a seat height of 16.1 inches, making it ideal for use as a low-profile accent seat or a footstool rather than a standard counter-height stool.
No, the OW2000 Egyptian Stool is designed exclusively for indoor use. Exposure to outdoor elements may compromise the solid wood construction and finish.
While the stool is backless, it is designed with an ergonomic shape that provides surprisingly good support. It is best suited for shorter periods of sitting, such as in an entryway, bedroom, or as an occasional seat in a living area.
To maintain the wood, simply dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or excessive water, which can damage the natural finish over time.
Yes, the OW2000 Egyptian Stool is crafted by Carl Hansen & Søn with meticulous joinery and arrives fully assembled, reflecting its high-quality construction.
