While the Broom Stool is simplistic in profile, the contemporary dining stool boasts an eco-friendly design that ensures lasting quality. In a joint effort between Philippe Starck and Emeco, the goal of the stool's design was to create a seat that focused on "reclaimed, repurposed, recyclable" without sacrificing on durability. Made with 75% wasted polypropylene and 15% reclaimed wood that'd typically be swept into the trash (Starck's inspiration for the stool's name), the stool embodies the concept of cradle-to-cradle. At the same time, the stools minimalist design enables it to be an easy furnishing addition to a variety of dining arrangements. Bring home the Broom Stool for a seat that's environmentally friendly and guaranteed to last.
