MODEL OPTIONS:
Charles Ghost Stool by kartell. The shape conjures up stools of the 1800s and the line of the legs is rounded and slightly upturned, an icon of the classic high stool. Charles Ghost is constructed from a single block of transparent polycarbonate which makes it indestructible and allows it to survive anywhere. It is available in three different heights: from the stool for occasional and informal use to that for the kitchen bench or bar counter. It is just as suited to closed surroundings as it is to open spaces and it embraces every kind of decor and culture. A wide range of transparent and opaque colours allows for the creation of intriguing chromatic combinations. Charles Ghost Stool by kartell is designed by Philippe Starck.
Kartell was founded in Milan in 1949 by chemical engineer Giulio Castelli with the conviction that industrial polymer technology could produce objects of lasting aesthetic and cultural value. The company's history is a series of manufacturing firsts: the first injection-moulded plastic storage unit (Anna Castelli Ferrieri's Componibili, 1969); the first chair produced from a single polycarbonate mould; Philippe Starck's Louis Ghost (2002), which reinterpreted a Louis XVI fauteuil in transparent polycarbonate and became one of the most sold chairs in design history. The Masters chair by Philippe Starck (2009) layers the silhouettes of the Eames DSR, Saarinen Tulip and Jacobsen Series 7 into a single polycarbonate shell - a piece of design history that is also a piece of design commentary.
