Last week I told you about how I was
inspired by a set of red stools I saw in a kitchen photo.
The ones I ordered were a knockoff brand, mimicing the stackable galvanized steel Marais stools originally designed by Xavier Pauchard and manufactured by his French brand Tolix in 1950.
They now come in several powder-coated finishes in colors like turquoise, yellow, green, orange, black, white, and -- as you know -- red. You can also buy them in just a natural steel finish.
You can find them for $285 each at
Design Within Reach, $250 at
Sundance, or $165 at
Life Interiors (Australia).
Overstock is selling them right now for only $74.99 - $80.99 for a set of 2.
I love the way these simple stools brighten up these kitchens:
I was bummed not to find any photos of the turquoise or green stools in action! Yellow certainly seems to be a popular choice, though. The natural galvanized steel version gives a cool industrial look, as seen in these photos.
What do you think? Are you down with the look?

I think they ARE growing on me! Especially as my kids have scooted around so much the legs on my wooden stools are wobbly...again. Those look indestructible and cute. I love the colors!
ReplyThe form reminds me of a woman's legs in heels - there's something very elegant and sultry in the design. The color pops even this out so that it's subtle.
ReplyWow! They look great. I think you might have changed my mind about what type of stools I need for my kitchen. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyHey Hollie Rae... If you are thinking of selling the saddle stools - let me know your price. I'm looking. :-)
