The Chiaro Bar Stool is a study in the enduring power of the archetype. Designed by New York-based designer Leon Ransmeier for Italian manufacturer Mattiazzi, its name — Chiaro, meaning "clear," "bright," and "straightforward" in Italian — speaks directly to its design philosophy: a stool that is visually and physically comfortable in almost any environment, without resorting to complexity or spectacle.
Crafted from solid European ash using Mattiazzi's precision CNC milling technology, Chiaro's defining detail is the structure beneath the seat — engineered to simplify joinery while reducing the total number of parts. The result is a stool of quiet sophistication: one that looks equally at home at a kitchen island, a restaurant bar, or a design-forward hospitality counter. Available in two heights (Counter Stool 650 mm and Bar Stool 750 mm) and seven lacquered ash finishes.
In Ransmeier's own words: "This design flirts with notions of an archetype to create what seems to be an ordinary design that is both visually and physically comfortable in many different environments."
