Xavier Pauchard High Natural Metal Tolix Style Stool

There is no hiding the industrial heritage of this grey Tolix style stool - it is metal on metal. Xavier Pauchard created the 'Tolix' trademark in 1930 and used it to market a range of metal furniture for use in the home, factories, offices, bars and caf--s. As a craftsman with a background in roofing, he worked hands on, developing his designs in the workshop rather then with a pencil and paper.
