    Vaarnii’s 002 Ast wooden stool, designed by Dimitri Bähler, is characterized by an unpretentious design that combines the rustic with the modern. The small wooden stool consists of thick, sturdy pieces of pinewood, its only decorations being the gently rounded edges and the knots and lively grain typical of pine.

    The name of the stool, Ast, is German and means “branch”, alluding to the knots that underline the strong yet often overlooked material. In addition to an extra seat, Ast can be used as a nightstand or side table.

    Material: Scots Pine. This wooden stool is crafted from pine—a soft wood that, over time, will get dents and scratches. However, these imperfections should be seen as signs of aging that add character, not as flaws. Pine also naturally changes color as it ages, with the light wood gradually becoming a beautiful honey hue.

    Finish: Matte wood oil (Osmo Color hardwax-oil 3062 matt)

    Origin of Pine: Finland

    Manufacturer: Senkki – Jurva, Finland

    Weight: 7.5 kg

    The Designer

    Dimitri Bähler

    Swiss designer Dimitri Bähler creates mass-produced designs, unique objects and spatial installations. Bähler carefully studies and researches production processes, then applies his wealth of knowledge spontaneously. The result are objects that are considered yet also intuitive. The end use of an object and the situation in which it will exist are always foremost in Bähler’s thinking.

    Pine Wood Characteristics

    Pine gets better with age. The colours mature to a deeper palette. The heartwood and sapwood age at different speeds and bring out the natural patterns of the grains. After a few years, the pine used in each wooden stool will settle into a rich and complex honey tone.

    Pine is a soft wood and will get dents and bruises over the years. But don’t think of them as blemishes or flaws. Embrace them. They’re evidence of life lived and furniture loved. Pine isn’t life-proof. It’s proof of life.

    All our products are locally made by select Finnish makers and specialists.

    Every pine tree is harvested from sustainably managed Finnish forests. The wood is hand-selected of the highest quality and each piece has its own unique colours and grain patterns.
