Tabouret by Jindrich Halabala for Cesky Nabytek, Czechoslovakia, 1956

Iconic Art Deco "Tulip" pouf designed by Jindřich Halabala for UP Závody in the 1930s, featuring its signature ribbed silhouette, original vintage patterned fabric, and newly restored wooden feet. The stool is functional and can be sat on, but it has some internal movement and leans slightly to one side due to a loosened internal wooden frame or spring strapping. Given this minor instability, it is best suited as a decorative statement piece, an ornamental accent, or a footrest rather than for heavy daily seating.
