Stuffed Sheep Seats

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Atlason's Princess Stool Urges You to Lounge on Lambs

— May 28, 2011 — Art & Design
This is definitely a piece of farmy furniture that will be a conversation starter.

Atlason's Princess stool has a baaffling design. This stylish seat has a life of its own -- or used to. Atlason's Princess stool is made out of the body of a young lamb, with all parts present except for the neck and head. Atlason teamed up with a taxidermist to create this fluffy footstool to ensure that the sheep's shape was shipshape.

The only part of this stool that isn't original is the leg's hooves. Before the natural hooves were removed, they were casted electronically, and exact silver replicas were produced. Atlason's Princess stool would be baad to give to animal activists, but it would be an interesting and useful piece in parlors.
