Description
This stool made of demolition wood is produced in series in Piet Hein Eek’s workshop in Holland with careful carpentry. Originally, Piet Hein Eek did not want to produce this stool because it seemed too simple. However, it proved to be very popular, which is why it is in constant production. The stool is also well suited as a side table or bedside table and is stackable. Each piece is unique with a unique colour combination based on the material available at the time.
The stool is available unvarnished or with a matt or high gloss finish.
After ordering, we will contact you by e-mail to select or commission the stool that suits you at Piet Hein Eek.
*Explanation of surface treatment:
unvarnished – no varnish
matt lacquered – two to three coats of matt lacquer to seal and protect the wood
high-gloss lacquered – over ten coats of lacquer, plus high-gloss finish

The Dutch designer Piet Hein Eek (1967) graduated from the Design Academy in Eindhoven, Holland, in 1990. While still a student, he received considerable attention for his “Scrap Wood” cabinets made from demolition wood, which celebrated the contrasting textures and colours of the wood scraps he used to assemble them.
Piet Hein Eek finds his inspiration in the beauty of the discarded materials he uses: In addition to waste wood, old metal plates, factory scrap, discarded beams and pipes and much more. Based on the found working material, he decides on the concept and the processing methods and finally expresses the natural qualities of the reused material. The result is unique pieces with a unique character and unmistakable appearance. Each piece is carefully handcrafted in Piet Hein Eek’s own workshop in Eindhoven with great effort. In addition to various workplaces and workshops, his huge premises also house a showroom, a shop, a restaurant and a hotel.
The name Piet Hein Eek stands for originality and exclusivity, because his creations clearly stand out from those of other designers and are often only available in small quantities. His product range is extremely broad and extends from chairs, tables, sideboards and beds to lamps and garden houses. His works can be purchased from selected dealers worldwide and have also been exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
