The Unstable Stool is an asymmetric rocking stool and a Scottish design classic featured in the Scottish Galley of V&A, Dundee.
A single length of wood is steamed and bent to create a strong asymmetric rocker for an exceptional ergonomic stool. It allows you to rock and lean forward whilst sitting at a table or a desk – a movement that keeps the spine straight and engages core muscles. The rockers have round tenons brought through the seat and traditionally wedged and pegged, creating a lovely detail. The spindles are hand turned and pegged and the seat is sculpted for comfort.
