The bar stools designed by Harry Bertoia stem from the idea of using metal not only as a structure but as a material capable of shaping space. From the front, they resemble a geometric lattice; from the side, their appearance changes completely. This constant transformation makes them still very interesting today. The structure of welded metal wires creates an open and almost transparent volume, which maintains a strong presence without becoming visually heavy. Bertoia often viewed his work with metal as an exploration of form and space rather than the material itself, and these stools are a fine example of that. The seat cushion adds a more material and domestic contrast. The orange hue adds depth to the metal structure. Around a counter, a kitchen island, or in a reception area, they add rhythm, transparency, and visual movement. Available in five pieces, they can be purchased individually (the displayed price is for a single stool) or freely composed into a set.
