Item Description
An exceptional original low stool, or tabouret, known as the iconic Berger Stool, designed by Charlotte Perriand. This refined example is exquisitely handcrafted in mahogany, executed with traditional woodworking techniques that are evident in the elegantly tapered legs and the beautifully resolved joinery throughout. The stool presents with honest aging and a rich, natural patina, enhancing the warmth and character of the wood while underscoring its authenticity and historical integrity. The surface and finish show gentle wear consistent with age and use, contributing to the quiet sophistication for which Perriand’s furniture is celebrated. A timeless and versatile form, the Berger Stool reflects Perriand’s humanist approach to design—where function, material integrity, and sculptural clarity coexist seamlessly. Equally compelling as a functional seat or as an accent piece within a curated interior. Literature: Charlotte Perriand, Complete Works, Volume 2: 1940–1955.
