Navy Stool with Arms, Wood Seat

Like its Navy® Collection family, the Navy® Stool with Arms, Wood Seat embodies the same design features. Having been originally designed in 1944 for use on submarines, the iconic and simple silhouette of the seat has proven itself timeless in a similar fashion as its composition. Constructed using the same 77 step process where craftsmen mold the softened recycled aluminum and then complete the process with strengthening it for durability; the modern dining stool is easily able to last a lifetime while continuing to offer comfortable seating through its natural wood seat and comfortably placed armrests and footrest.
