Set includes one red stool and one green stool. Limited quantities available.These plastic circular chess stools, unlike the ubiquitous red stool, are a relic of old school Taiwanese daily life, once a common seating choice for eateries and arcades. They're practical for their affordability and space-saving stackability.Teleported straight from that bygone era, these red and green palindromic numbers are sleek and low-profile, evocative of 1970s pop design. The shape is actually an interpretation of a mid-century French design that dates to the late 60s, originally designed as an inexpensive seat for fishermen. Brigitte Bardot was pictured with one, and the stool skyrocketed in popularity. The design of the Taiwanese-produced stool is slightly different, but is clearly influenced by the three-part construction and corseted shape.Use these stools for extra seating, display pieces for elevating plants, or side tables for stacking books. You can even lift up the lid and store your favorite toys or small knick-knacks in the seat. When not in use, simply break each stool down into its three parts and stack them for compact storage.And, by getting this bundle of assorted colors, you can customize their color combinations: red on red, green on green, and red on green (which, of course, we’re partial to for its resemblance to our Yun Hai Tatung Family Cookbook).About Yun Hai SelectionYun Hai Selection is the house brand of Yun Hai Taiwanese Pantry.A Note on PricingThe prices on these are definitely higher than you’d see in Taiwan.
