The Egyptian Folding stool is a true Danish Design Classic. Ole Wanscher drew his inspiration from Ancient Egypt and Thebes when designing this Folding stool. According to history, the Folding stool has long been recognized as a seat of dignity and power and the construction and finish are outstanding.

The Stool was first put into production in 1957 and taken out again in the 1970s. Danish cabinet makers PJ Furniture put it back in production in the year 2000. The stool has an elegant and decorative design and despite its lightness, it is very stable. The chair is easy to move around and to store. When folding the chair, the seat folds down into the frame of the chair.

The frame of the stool is made of solid wood. The seat comes in black, cognac or natural leather.

A workshop in Odense, Denmark in 1908, was the birthplace of the Carl Hansen company. With a fast reputation for quality work, Carl Hansen confidently took on large projects like dining room sets and bedroom suites. However, Hansen eventually learned to capitalize on scaled-back versions of his popular sellers, realizing that their strongest asset was its hand craftsmanship and rationality. Carl Hansen invited Hans Wegner to create designs in 1949, launching a mutually beneficial relationship bringing success to the company and exposure to the young Wegner. Wegner was still relatively unknown, but soon gained wide acclaim that continues to today.
