Due to the natural beauty of these items there may be changes to the colour overtime.
Blot any spillages immediately with a dry cloth, do not use chemical cleaners.
To nourish and protect the wood edible oils, such as olive or walnut oil, can be rubbed into the surface with a cloth.
The seat is hand made from sustainable mango wood. The mango trees are initially grown for their fruit but once they have stopped producing they can be cut down and used to create wood products.
Removal of old trees makes space for farmers to plant new mango trees. This not only means that none of the wood is wasted but offers a supplementary income to mango wood farmers.
The Loko Natural Mango Wood and Iron Stool for Modern Living
The most successful interiors are often those that balance contrasting textures, and the Loko Natural Mango Wood and Iron Stool achieves this with effortless ease. It is the kind of piece that earns its place in a home, offering a tactile connection to nature through its substantial mango wood seat. Each stool is hand carved by artisans, ensuring that the natural variations in the grain are celebrated rather than hidden. This is furniture for the homeowner who appreciates a quietly considered aesthetic, where the focus remains on quality and form.
Sustainable Craftsmanship and Industrial Strength
In a world of fast furniture, there is a particular pleasure in choosing items that tell a story of sustainability. The mango wood used for the Loko stool is sourced from trees that have reached the end of their fruiting life, providing a second purpose for the timber and a supplementary income for farmers. This thoughtful approach to sourcing is matched by the longevity of the design. The iron frame provides a slim yet incredibly strong foundation, ensuring the stool remains a fixture in your kitchen for years to come. The footrest, positioned at an ideal height, adds to the ergonomic appeal, making it as comfortable for a quick morning coffee as it is for a long evening of conversation.
Styling the Raw and Rustic Aesthetic
The beauty of this stool lies in its versatility. While it naturally finds a home in a rustic or industrial kitchen, its clean lines allow it to settle into more minimalist or Scandi inspired environments. The natural finish of the wood is designed to age gracefully, with the colour potentially shifting over time to reflect the unique environment of your home. To maintain its character, a simple routine of care is all that is required. The Loko stool is not just a seat, it is a statement of intent, proof that functional furniture can also be a work of art.

A Considered Addition to the Kitchen Island
When selecting seating for the heart of the home, one must consider both the silhouette and the scale. The Loko stool cuts a striking figure without overwhelming the space, thanks to the slender profile of its iron legs. The curve of the seat is not merely for show, it is a deliberate design choice to ensure comfort during extended use. In a busy household, these are the pieces that become the backdrop to daily rituals, from school morning breakfasts to late night catch ups. It is a well made, honest piece of design that reflects a commitment to both style and substance.
