Temple Saddle Stool
Description
Made from solid elm wood. The seat is shaped with a gentle curve to improve comfort. The proportions are compact and stable. It works well as a stool, side seat, or low table in daily use.
The design comes from the traditional Eastern square stool. Its structure echoes the form of temple roofs, where weight is carried through clear lines and lifted edges. The upward curves give the stool a quiet architectural presence. It reads as furniture, but it also holds the feeling of an object shaped by tradition and space.

warmth
Wood remembers the room it lives in.
Light, touch, and time slowly shape its surface, each mark becoming part of your story.
Each Mantodea Chair is shaped through a measured, human process, where time is allowed to settle into the material. The making is deliberate rather than hurried, guided by touch, adjustment, and repetition.
Subtle irregularities are not corrected, but kept, as quiet evidence of the hand behind the form. In this way, the chair carries more than structure; it carries pace, intention, and the dignity of work done slowly.
Inspiration
Objects are not trophies. They are the quiet witnesses to how you live.
Placed within a room, the Temple Saddle Stool introduces a quiet architectural rhythm. The lifted seat line recalls the silhouette of traditional Eastern roof eaves. The form feels familiar and calm. The wood surface carries warmth and natural texture. In a contemporary interior, the stool reads as both seating and presence. It brings a subtle trace of Eastern craft into the space. The object feels grounded and composed. It sits comfortably among modern materials and open interiors.
The Artisan Behind
The OWC Home Collection begins with objects shaped by hand, guided by material, and refined through time. Created in collaboration with Shanghai woodworker Master Lin Haoyu, the collection reflects a shared belief: that well-made pieces should age beautifully, support daily rituals, and quietly belong in the spaces we live in.
