Jindrich Halabala Stool in Decorative Upholstery

Jindrich Halabala for UP Závody, footstool, tabouret, ottoman, fabric, walnut, Czech Republic, 1930s.

This poetic pouf, designed in the 1930s at the height of the Art Deco movement, stands out for its artistic upholstery, which still retains its original fabric, and its intriguing construction. Halabala crafted a harmonious piece that beautifully balances soft colors with bold, geometric forms. Beyond its visual appeal, the pouf is also highly functional - it can serve both as an ottoman for your lounge chair or as a standalone stool. The design exemplifies Halabala’s signature aesthetic and thoughtful use of materials.
