Space age retro hourglass stool or side table

In the tradition of Philippe Starck's iconic Prince AHA stool for Kartell, this hourglass stool and side table distils one of the most satisfying forms in the history of functional design into an object of effortless contemporary relevance. Two generous conical volumes meet at a narrow waist with mathematical precision, the upper bowl resolving into a flat circular seat and the lower cone flaring outward into a broad stable base, the whole silhouette reading as a single unbroken gesture that is as compelling from across the room as it is comfortable underfoot. Its deep matte finish absorbs light with quiet authority, available in six considered colourways spanning charcoal grey, matte black, cobalt blue, pure white, forest green and soft sky blue, so that it integrates as naturally into a monochrome interior as it makes a statement in a more playful, colour-forward space. Equally at home as a stool, a side table or a sculptural accent object, it is the rare piece of functional furniture that earns its place on both counts.
