Designed by Norwegian designer
Andreas Bergsaker and produced by
HAY, the
Chisel 30 bar stool reinterprets the formal language of the armchair of the same name in a tall, compact version. Its name, which means “chisel” in English, pays homage to this traditional woodworking tool, whose beveled edges are reflected in the very design of the base, with its slanted legs cut at sharp angles. Designed to stand the test of time,
Chisel 30 was born from a simple desire: to design a solid wood seat with a bold silhouette that is both contemporary and timeless. The circular seat, sleek and unadorned, allows the base to take center stage, its organic lines visually extending the movement of the chisel’s blade. Crafted from solid wood stained in a bold color, the structure highlights the richness of the wood grain while giving it a unique hue, striking a balance between artisanal precision and understated design. This interplay of materials—both bold and warm—gives the stool a sculptural presence that makes a statement without ever being overpowering.
Chisel 30 fits naturally into both residential and professional settings, from a kitchen counter to a bar in a commercial space.
