The Design Story

Grooved gold-toned iron meets a grounded black base in a compact handmade stool that shifts easily between seat, footrest, and accent surface.

The Maxime Stool reduces the idea of occasional seating to a confident study in contrast. A subtly grooved gold-toned top catches light across its surface while the solid black iron base gives the piece visual weight and a crisp architectural foundation. Rather than relying on ornament, Maxime lets proportion, finish, and the meeting of two metal tones create the drama.

At 18 inches high with a compact 15.8-inch footprint, Maxime can move easily through a room without feeling incidental. Use it beside a lounge chair, at the edge of a conversation area, as a footrest, or as a small decorative stand. Its versatility is part of the design: a functional object with enough sculptural presence to remain compelling even when nothing rests on it.

Material Character

The Nature of the Piece

Iron gives Maxime its sense of permanence: crisp enough to hold a clean silhouette, yet substantial enough to feel anchored rather than delicate. The gold-toned upper surface is defined by shallow grooves that break up reflection and give the metal a more dimensional, tactile character.

Against that warmer surface, the black iron base reads quieter and denser, creating the visual pause that keeps the piece from becoming overly decorative. Because the design is made entirely from metal, its character comes from finish, proportion, and the controlled contrast between sheen and depth rather than from applied pattern.

Additional Information

No two homes come together in quite the same way—and neither do the pieces chosen for them. Our collection brings together furnishings and objects from a variety of makers and manufacturers, each with its own production schedules, shipping methods, and delivery options.

We consider those differences part of the process of sourcing pieces with character. Whether an item arrives by parcel within days, travels by freight, or is prepared especially for your order, our focus remains the same: selecting pieces worth bringing into your home and making the journey from their source to your space as thoughtful as possible.

A well-considered home isn't assembled all at once. It takes shape piece by piece, through objects chosen not simply to fill a space, but to make that space feel like home.
