Ido Barstool
Made by Zanotta
Designed by Frank Rettenbacher in 2016, the Ido Barstool draws from the quiet authority of the studio stool, a form shaped by function and refined over generations. Rettenbacher distills that tradition to its essentials: slim, upright proportions, honest joinery, and a restrained material palette that lets the wood speak.
The frame is available in solid natural-painted oak or Canaletto walnut, each bringing its own character to the piece. A satin-finished stainless steel footrest introduces a subtle material contrast, grounding the design with both visual precision and practical durability.
Ido works with equal composure at a kitchen island, a hospitality counter, or a residential bar. Its slender silhouette occupies space without imposing on it, a quality that rewards the considered interior.
