Folding stools are quintessential to Danish design tradition, initially introduced to challenge designers to rethink their approach to seating design, the JG Folding Stool is no exception.
Featuring a cleverly devised folding mechanism and an effortless canvas seat, the simplicity and quality of the materials are intrinsic to the design of the stool. Appreciated for its unique visual expression, the stool is equally appealing when neatly folded away as it is expanded.
