This pair of Spoon Stools are original stools designed by A Citterio with Toan Nguyen for Kartell in 2002. The innovation of the Spoon consists mainly in attaching the seat to a central support with a specially reinforced curve to guarantee a comfortable sitting position. The gas lift pump adjusts the height from between 56 to 76cm & is perfectly inserted into the stem. This enables the stools to be used at a regular height table or at a kitchen island or bar. in the same ingenious fashion, the handle which regulates the mechanism is perfectly concealed inside the seat. These Spoon Stools are so popular, stylish & beautifully made that they are still being made today & Toan Nguyen went on to become a designer in his own right after 10 years with Kartell. A Citterio opened an office for architecture, interior design & graphics in 2000. These stools are in a very good vintage condition. There is a small nick to the right of each stool seat & the plastic is slightly rough on top of the back of the stools (please see photos). There are small surface scratches on the seats on close inspection that I have been unable to capture on the photos. These do not deter from the overall quality & design of these stools.
