Structure & Frame :

The Hiru counter stool features a structure in solid ash wood, showcasing the collection's signature helical legs and non-planar surfaces. Designed by Mario Ferrarini, the woodwork highlights Potocco's expertise in treating wood as a "living material" modeled into complex, organic shapes.

Top & Materials :

The seat and backrest are padded with fire-retardant polyurethane foam. The upholstery is designed to have a reciprocal relationship with the wood, being visible from every angle to emphasize the intersection between the soft textile and the architectural wooden frame.

Shelves & Storage :

As a specialized seating solution, it focuses on ergonomic support and artisanal detail. The stool is equipped with a functional footrest, often protected by a metal profile to ensure durability and maintain the aesthetic integrity of the ash wood legs.

Design & Aesthetic :

The 947/S model embodies a contemporary, sculptural aesthetic. The helical legs provide a sense of vertical movement, making the stool a sophisticated design statement that complements modern kitchen islands or breakfast bars.

Functionality & Placement :

This model is the lower version of the two stools, specifically designed for indoor counter-height surfaces. It is ideal for residential kitchen peninsulas or hospitality settings like bistro counters where a lower seating position is required.

Finishes & Customization :

The ash structure is available in various stains (Beige, Moka, Carbon, Walnut, etc.) or special lacquered colors. The seat and back can be customized with a wide selection of fabrics, leathers, or faux leathers from the Potocco collection.

Dimensions & Configuration :

Model 947/S has a seat height of 67 cm and a total height of 94 cm. It is part of the Hiru family, which allows for a unified look when paired with the 947/A barstool, the 947 dining chair, and the 947/P armchair. :
