OW2000 Egyptian Stool by Carl Hansen & SonThe OW2000 Egyptian Stool by Ole Wanscher exemplifies his creative vision and masterful touch. The stool is crafted from quality, natural materials that express his passion for exploration and original thought. Inspired by travel and classic designThe OW2000 Egyptian Stool was designed by Ole Wanscher in 1957. The influence of his travel outside of Denmark is clear to see in this intriguing design. While in Egypt, Wanscher became fascinated with old seats of power, leading to the design of the elegant, lightweight Egyptian Stool with Temple of Thebes furniture in mind. The design of the stool nods gracefully to his source of inspiration, yet is distinctly modern in its expression and construction. The seat, crafted from saddle leather, easily collapses into the chair when folded. Many of Wanscher's designs have become collectors pieces due to their timeless simplicity and beautiful finish. The OW2000 Egyptian Stool is no exception.
