    The 001 Stool by Fredrik Paulsen is essential, immediate, resilient. Like the Dining Tables and Chairs before it, Paulsen has created a pleasingly archetypal design. Although the stool is the smallest object in the 001 family, this wooden stool loses none of the bulk that characterises its siblings. Generous dimensions of timber are used to full effect, making a reliably sturdy piece. Yet 001 is light enough to be moved around easily, because Paulsen wanted to be clear about designing practical everyday seating.

    A small but substantial wood stool, made in Finland of Finnish pine.

    Material: Scots Pine. This wooden stool is crafted from pine—a soft wood that, over time, will get dents and scratches. However, these imperfections should be seen as signs of aging that add character, not as flaws. Pine also naturally changes color as it ages, with the light wood gradually becoming a beautiful honey hue.

    Finish: Matte wood oil (Osmo Color hardwax-oil 3062 matt)

    Origin of Pine: Finland

    Manufacturer: Senkki – Jurva, Finland

    Weight: 5.2 kg

    Length: 40 Width: 40 Height: 44

    Small but mighty, sturdy and versatile seating.

    Material Characteristics

    Pine gets better with age. The colours mature to a deeper palette. The heartwood and sapwood age at different speeds and bring out the natural patterns of the grains. After a few years, the pine used in each wooden stool will settle into a rich and complex honey tone.

    Pine is a soft wood and will get dents and bruises over the years. But don’t think of them as blemishes or flaws. Embrace them. They’re evidence of life lived and furniture loved. Pine isn’t life-proof. It’s proof of life.

    All our products are locally made by select Finnish makers and specialists.

    Every pine tree is harvested from sustainably managed Finnish forests. The wood is hand-selected of the highest quality and each piece has its own unique colours and grain patterns.

    The Designer

    Fredrik Paulsen

    Swedish designer Fredrik Paulsen challenges the ‘precious’ in design and has a particular love of inexpensive and accessible materials. His much-celebrated objects and installations are escapist, accessible, and reflect a playful counterculture. Besides the irreverence, Paulsen is a highly skilled maker of forms who returns to the chair typology again and again in pursuit of design perfection.
