Interesting design, but probably not the most comfortable place to park your behind – the Sori Yanagi mid-century Butterfly Stool for Vitra.

It’s something of a culture clash, with Sori Yanagi mixing Easter inspiration with Eames working techniques in 1954 to produce the Butterfly – so named because the shape is reminiscent of the wings of a butterfly.

The stool is available in two sizes and three finishes (maple, palisander or cherry veneer), all with brass fixings. Prices start at £258.40.
