Ingvar Hildingsson stool
This stool was designed and produced by Ingvar Hildingsson in Sweden during the 1980s. It is crafted from jatoba wood, a dense and durable hardwood noted for its rich reddish-brown color and fine grain. The design embraces a minimalist Scandinavian aesthetic, featuring a stable three-legged construction supporting a circular seat with gently rounded edges for comfort.
The proportions reflect traditional Scandinavian craftsmanship, emphasizing simple geometric forms and the use of high-quality materials. The polished wood surface reveals natural variations in tone and grain, while a subtle patina has developed over time, enhancing the stool’s visual depth. The solid construction includes visible joinery details that underscore its handmade character.
Ingvar Hildingsson is known for his dedication to Swedish craft traditions, and this stool stands as a rare example of his work. Markings and labels on the underside confirm its production under his name.
The stool measures 26 cm in diameter and 36 cm in height (10.2 x 14.2 inches).
