the ‘sit’abit cork stool jr’ is made of three pieces that feature smooth contours. a handle has been placed on one of its legs, that makes it easy to transport or to store it away in its reusable packaging. the flat-packed, easy-to-assemble stool is not only an eye-catcher, but also playful in spirit and environmentally friendly.
