A classic form rendered in cobalt and white, this garden stool from Legend of Asia carries magpies among bamboo across its barrel body, framed by pierced coin cutouts at the waist. The porcelain stool works as extra seating when guests arrive, a side table beside a reading chair, or a plant stand in a sunroom. The blue white brushwork is applied by hand in a southern Chinese kiln town before the piece is high fired, leaving a dense ceramic stool body that stands up to weather. Waterproof and weatherproof, it moves freely between patio decor arrangements and interior corners as an outdoor stool that never looks out of place. For chinoiserie decor and broader asian decor schemes, this accent stool remains one of the most useful pieces available anywhere.
