The Milker low stool and bar stool, designed by David Walley, are refined and contemporary interpretations of the classic three-legged stool.

The single coloured leg was inspired by a collection of over 200 milking stools, each unique. Although most traditional milking stools had three legs, many were simple one-legged devices that the milker balanced on and in countries such as Switzerland the one-legged stool was common. The single coloured leg on the Yellow Diva Milker reflects these origins.

The single painted leg allows a subtle introduction of colour, we have selected a palette of ten colours, based on traditional ‘milk paints’: four warm & four cool colours, plus black and white.

Milker is made in Australia, from American ash. The timber is finished with a transparent ‘raw’ oil that retains the natural look and feel of the timber.

Milker stools are available in two heights, low 440mmH & tall 650mmH, with more in the range to follow later in the year. Milker stools have a 3 year commercial warranty.
