Oak stool ladder with 2 steps
The Butler Oiled Oak is more than just a functional piece of furniture - it is an expression of Scandinavian design culture. It was designed by Shane Schneck, an American designer with a studio in Stockholm, who is known for his clear, intelligent and everyday designs. Schneck combines the precision of industrial design with the warmth of Scandinavian home aesthetics to create products that are as practical as they are aesthetic.
The design idea behind the Butler arose from the desire to create an object that fulfills several roles at the same time - without sacrificing elegance. The shape is reduced, yet well thought out: recessed grips make it easier to carry, the sturdy steps guarantee safety and the balanced proportions make it a decorative piece of furniture. Schneck thus follows its philosophy that good design should both simplify and beautify everyday life.
Manufactured from solid, oiled oak, the Butler longevity and naturalness. The oiled surface emphasizes the warm grain and provides an elegant feel. Whether as a stepladder, side table or bedside table - the Butler is versatile and blends effortlessly into modern living environments.
For maintenance, it is sufficient to treat the surface with wood oil at regular intervals. This preserves the beauty and resilience of the material in the long term.
