Available in a choice of natural or dark oak, and featuring powder-coated metal legs in a complimenting shade, the Tabouret 307 carries a minimalist tone that emphasises the beauty of the materials utilised in its production. Simple and uncomplicated, the unembellished beauty of Prouvé's distinctive approach to interior design is on full display in this characterful object that has been reissued to exacting standards by Vitra.
Jean Prouve was born into an artistic family in Nancy, France. Prouve trained as a metalsmith before attending engineering school in Nancy, and his intimate knowledge of metal remained the foundation of his work and career.
After opening his own workshop in 1923, Prouve began producing modern metal furniture of his own design as well as collaborating with some of the best-known French designers of the day, including Le Corbusier and Charlotte Perriand.
