The Sling Stool: A Perfect Companion To The Sling Chair
A perfect companion to the Sling Chair, or a stand-alone foot stool to complement a chair you already own. What can I say? Put your feet up and enjoy in style and comfort. Built on the same principle as the Sling Chair, the supple leather platform envelopes you in an airy embrace. The Oak and leather are locally-sourced Maine materials. All joints are hand-crafted mortise and tenon. With the removal of a few pegs, the entire stool can be taken apart for shipment and then re-assembled with only a household hammer or mallet in a matter of minutes by somebody with no woodworking experience. Shipment via UPS is free anywhere in the U.S.

Meet the Maker
Evan Emmott
Maine Modern
I am a wooden boat builder and furniture maker on the Mid Coat of Maine. I am drawn to modern design, particularly Scandinavian modern, which is made beautiful through restraint, simplicity, and functionality, like the wooden boats native to this area. I prefer to use woods native to Maine, like Oak, Cherry and Ash, which I select and harvest off a large family woodlot in order to control quality. All of my pieces employ traditional hand-cut joinery, such as dovetails and mortise and tenon, while the designs are contemporary. This combination of old techniques and modern design ensures that the furniture will last for generations and remain timeless.
