Kuro Nami Stool – Japanese Inspired Steam-Bent Ash & Ebonised Walnut
The Kuro Nami stool is a celebration of balance, craftsmanship, and contemporary Japanese design. Handcrafted from solid steam-bent ash with a sculpted ebonised walnut seat, it brings together lightness, strength, and refined minimalism.
The flowing curves of the ash legs are shaped using traditional steam-bending techniques, creating a structure that is both elegant and resilient. A gently arched stretcher adds stability while expressing movement and harmony — a quiet nod to organic form and fine furniture making.
The seat, formed in rich walnut and finished in a deep black ebonised tone, provides a striking contrast to the pale timber base. Its subtle wave offers comfort while enhancing the sculptural silhouette.
Designed and made by hand, this bespoke wooden stool is ideal as:
- a luxury entryway seat
- a contemporary Japanese style stool
- a fine woodworking statement piece
- a compact handcrafted side stool
Perfect for modern interiors, curated spaces, and collectors of high-end bespoke furniture, the Kuro Nami reflects the values of precision, natural materials, and timeless design.
A piece that feels calm, intentional, and quietly uplifting —
crafted to last for generations.
