This stool won an honorable mention at the first Tendo Mokko Design Competition.
"Murai" is named after the maiden name of designer Reiko Tanabe.
The simple and beautiful design is made by combining three identical pieces of molded plywood without using any metal fittings.
We have paid particular attention to the details, such as the way the beautiful grain of the teak comes together towards the center.
The top surface is horizontal no matter which side is facing down, so it can be used stably and can be used as a chair or side table, or even stacked to create a shelf.
This stool stimulates the imagination of the user. It is a stool that can be used for a long time and will enrich your life.
