The Cast Naturals collection highlights their skills at taking an innovative material and making it feel as if it sprang from nature. This stool is made of composite that has been molded to look like a piece of aged wood that it took nature eons to create. It takes great skill for their artisans to paint the material to make it so convincingly resemble woodgrain. The advantage of having a wood stool made from this durable material is that it will long outlast its natural counterparts pulled from the forest floor. This piece is the perfect representation of the Phillips Collection ethos: modern organic. They have a number of offerings that exhibit the feel of petrified wood.
