Know before you buy
Yes, its flat, curved seat is designed to be stable enough to function as a side table for books, drinks, or decorative objects when not in use as seating.
No, the Torii Stool arrives fully assembled and ready for immediate use.
The seat is ergonomically curved to mold to the body, providing better support than a standard flat-top stool, though it is best suited for casual, shorter-term seating.
The stool is crafted from solid ash wood, which is known for its durability and distinct grain patterns.
The hourglass base provides a solid, balanced footprint, making it stable on both hard surfaces like wood or tile and low-pile area rugs.
