Shitake Marcel Wanders, 2007 Description Table/stool. Rotationally molded polyethylene with weather- and fade-resistant integral colors of off-white, fluo green, lacquer red, agata grey, choco brown and black carbon. Shitake stools are hollow and can be filled with water or sand.
Wanders’ Shitake stools feature an embossed lacy relief pattern inspired by the tale of Snow White: finding her in a death-like sleep, the elves mournfully sit on little stools covered in the lace which Snow White had embroidered and given to them for their 100th birthday. Because they grow on tree trunks, Shitake mushrooms are referred to, in the designer’s native Dutch, by a word that means “bench for elves”. Shitake goes indoors and out.
