Natural forms reimagined in architectural style. The Forest Bar Stool by Bernhardt Design is one of those furniture pieces that will be talked about by almost every guest. Inspired by overlapping branches in a dense forest, it features a flared open base with tubular beams in both vertical and horizontal orientation to create an appealing geometry. Durable chrome-plated steel base provides optimal support, while the contrasting wooden swivel top enables a comfortable sitting experience. This bar stool is designed by artist Arik Levy, who creates sculpture-inspired designs for modern homes.

Founded in 1889, Bernhardt Design got its start in Lenoir, North Carolina. While John Mathias Bernhardt originally conceived it as an industrial company, he soon realized that the abundant natural resources of the region, combined with the meticulous woodworking skills of the local people, could be put to better use in a furniture company. Thus, Bernhardt Design was born. Over the ensuing decades, Bernhardt and his team steadily worked to improve and refine their products, developing the brand into the powerhouse it is today.
