Structure & Frame :

The 949/SC counter stool features a structure crafted from solid ash wood, representing the brand's expertise in woodworking. It is part of the collection expansion presented at the Salone del Mobile Milano 2024. The frame is reinforced with a metal footrest available in bronzed brass or satin gold, providing both a visual accent and functional durability for high-use environments.

Top & Materials :

This specific version is distinguished by its upholstered seat, which is padded with fire-retardant polyurethane foam. The combination of the natural solid ash structure with a soft, tailored seat offers a high level of comfort while maintaining the "cozy and strong" design language of the Minima family. The upholstery can be selected from the wide range of collection fabrics and leathers.

Shelves & Storage :

As a specialized seating product for counter heights, the 949/SC focuses on a rigorous profile and ergonomic stability. The design is a "reassuring project" that emphasizes a stable footprint and precise joinery. It does not include storage components, instead focusing on the weighted details that define its architectural silhouette.

Design & Aesthetic :

Designed by Mario Ferrarini, the stool embodies fluid and energetic lines. The aesthetic is defined by the seamless transition between the solid wood legs and the upholstered seat, resulting in a minimalist yet expressive form that highlights the company’s masterful ability to relate wood to other materials.

Functionality & Placement :

This model is ideal for indoor residential kitchens with island counters or high-end contract hospitality projects. Its robust construction and elegant design make it a versatile choice for contemporary spaces that require a balance of warmth and professional-grade durability.

Finishes & Customization :

The stool offers deep customization, with the ash structure available in standard stains like Pure Natural, Moka, and Walnut, or special colors such as Bluette and Olive Green. The upholstered seat can be personalized with any textile from the Potocco catalog, and the footrest is available in different metal finishes.

Model 949/SC features a width of 49 cm, a depth of 51.5 cm, and a total height of 97.5 cm. The seat height is 65.5 cm, designed specifically for standard counter-height surfaces.
