Audoux Minet tripod stools in braided raffia 1950 set of 2
This pair of stools is attributed to the French designers Adrien Audoux and Frida Minet, two leading figures of French design in the 1950s. Their work is renowned for its honest use of natural materials, where the simplicity of the forms highlights exceptional craftsmanship.
The stools feature solid wood frames with clean, balanced lines, complemented by handwoven raffia seats. The finely woven raffia adds texture and authenticity, while the warmth of the wood enhances the natural elegance of the pieces.
Faithful to the aesthetic developed by Audoux and Minet, these stools perfectly embody their philosophy of elevating humble materials through outstanding craftsmanship. Their timeless design combines rustic charm with modernist simplicity and Mediterranean influences, making them highly sought after by collectors today.
Versatile and functional, they can be used as bedside tables or side tables. Their understated silhouette allows them to blend effortlessly into contemporary, wabi-sabi, bohemian or mid-century interiors.
We particularly appreciate the authenticity of this pair, the beauty of its natural materials and the understated elegance that characterizes the work attributed to Adrien Audoux and Frida Minet. Rare on the market, these stools are a fine example of French craftsmanship and mid-century design.
