Story
The Stool of the Newood Family
The Newood Light stool carries the Windsor-chair starting point of the Newood family into a minimalist, lightweight form with a distinctive character. With it the family is complete.
Two Heights, Two Seats
The stool is made in two heights. Both heights take either a wooden seat or a padded one. The solid ash frame comes in four finishes, and a brushed stainless steel footrest runs across the front.
