Description

Designer: Sori Yanagi

A cushion made for butterfly stools.
Tendo Woodwork's original textiles with a rough texture are used, and the name “willow” is the plant “willow”. There remains an anecdote that Sori Yanagi chose from yarn.
Both red and green are vibrant yet calm, and harmonize with the grain of both rosewood and maple. Coloring that balances well in various spaces such as Japanese and European tastes.
Please use with a world-class masterpiece stool.
