Originally used along the muddy shores of Japan for clam harvesting, this vintage wooden stool is a humble yet beautifully utilitarian object. Designed to slide easily across wet sand while seated, its low profile, worn runners, and hand-carved seat reflect a tradition of resourceful craftsmanship and connection to the tides.
The stool's sculptural silhouette and patinaed finish give it a quietly striking presence—perfect as an unexpected accent in modern interiors.
Origin: Japan
Material: Hand-Carved Wood
Dimensions: Approx. 14" L x 10" W x 6" H
Perfect for: layering beneath a console, styling as a sculptural riser, or adding texture and story to an open shelf or tabletop.
