Torii is a simple yet subtly sophisticated wood chair, defined by its closely spaced back legs, broad seat, and small arched backrest. Its minimal appearance and simple construction hide a surprising amount of comfort and sturdiness, making it suitable for both residential and commercial use. Torii is the Japanese name for the characteristic wood entrance arches to Shinto shrines in Japan, and translates directly into English as "bird perch." This motif perfectly describes the chairs distinct proportions and traditional joinery, and the sense of harmony and calm inherent in design that is beautifully resolved. The Torii stool is available in several wood frame finishes; upholstery is available in a wide range of fabric and leather options. Manufactured by Bensen.
The Torii counter stool is available through our Quickship program in a structure of Black Ash combined with a Black leather seat. Please contact Switch Modern at 404-605-0196 or info@switchmodern.com to check current availability.
