The shape of Ghost conjures up stools of the 1800's, and the lines of the legs are rounded and slightly upturned, an icon of the classic high stool. Charles Ghost is constructed from a single block of transparent polycarbonate, which makes it indestructible and allows it to survive anywhere. It is available in three different heights: from the stool for occasional and informal session to the kitchen bench or bar counter. It's just as suited to closed surroundings as to open spaces and it embraces every kind of furnishing and every culture. A wide range of transparent and opaque colors allows for the creation of intriguing chromatic combinations. (red, white and black colors are opaque; balance of colors are transparent).
