Tabouret Métallique stool, Prouvé Blanc Colombe

Vitra's Tabouret Métallique was originally designed by Jean Prouvé in 1936 and reissued by Vitra in 2022. Tabouret Métallique, which is French for "metallic stool", consists of a round seat and a fascinating angular leg structure, which Prouvé later also used in his Trapèze table. The Tabouret Métallique stool also works perfectly as a small side table, for example, next to a lounge chair, and it has plastic gliders on the bottom to protect the floor from scratches.
The stool's subtle hue is part of Jean Prouvé’s original colour palette. The colour used to be called “ecru” in Vitra’s furniture, but in 2022, the name was changed to Blanc Colombe, Prouvé’s original name for the hue. The poetic name is French, and its direct translation would be “dove white”.
