Recbangular Stool
Ipe (Zitan)

• The seat features a mitered corner joint, with edges that are rounded and polished for a smooth touch.
• Despite the four legs being fashioned from square timber, their edges are rounded off, creating a cohesive and unified appearance with the seat's design.
• The base is connected to the legs using a lattice shoulder tenon, and this method is consistently applied to attach the horizontal supports with both the lattice shoulder tenon and the apron.
