Treat yourself to an ORIGINAL piece of iconic furniture by Cassina. Often imitated and copied but never equalled, Cassina's original iconic furniture will always retain its value, being passed on to the next generation. Cassina is the exclusive publisher of many iconic creations that have marked the history of design. Created in 1953-61 by Charlotte Perriand, the Berger and Méribel Stools are icons that have marked the history of design. Both the Berger and Méribel stools are inspired by the mountains, one named after the shepherds of the Alps who used this type of stool for milking, the other after the French town that Perriand loved so much. The elementary shapes evoke mountain architecture and ambience. These stools are distinguished by the purity of their simple forms and by their pragmatic aspect, expressed by the material and function for which they are intended. The turned seat is matched by stylized legs, both for the Berger Stool, a low variant with three hand-turned solid wood legs, and for the Meribel Stool, a high version with three angular cutaway legs. Produced by Cassina, these Stools are the fruit of meticulous craftsmanship that honors the authenticity of the project. These little masterpieces can be used individually or in highly original compositions. The use of Solid wood offers a pleasant sensation of softness, with the continuity of the grain between the top and the edge, while the depth of the surfaces draws infinite natural variations on each piece. Berger and Méribel can be used as seats or small side tables. Berger and Méribel Stools are meticulously crafted by experienced artisans, embodying the excellence of Italian craftsmanship. High-quality materials give this furniture unrivalled durability and beauty. Cassina's perfectionist craftsmanship contributes to the myth of these seats, which will accompany the lives of many generations. Cassina's original Charlotte Perriand furniture can be identified by the control of three pieces of information that guarantee its authenticity: the author's signature in the form of a mark, the Cassina logo ''I Maestri'', the identification number, present on every piece produced.
