Rowac
The three-legged ROWAC stool marks the return of a design classic. Faithfully crafted and produced in its original region, it offers the same qualities as over 100 years ago: clear form, functional construction, and a design built to last. A Bauhaus stool with cult status – not as a replica, but as an honest continuation.
ROWAC itself was founded in Chemnitz in 1888, in the midst of industrialization. The "Saxon Manchester" was characterized by mechanical engineering, the textile industry, and inventive craftsmanship. Here, the trained locksmith Karl Robert Wagner founded his hardware factory.
In 1909, the decisive step followed: With the Model I, ROWAC developed the world's first riveted seating furniture made of lightweight strip steel. The stool found its way into workshops, factories, and even to the Bauhaus in Weimar, Dessau, and Berlin – and became the benchmark for industrial seating.
With the brand's new look, those technically sophisticated details that once stood for functionality and durability are being continued. ROWAC sees its role as preserving this industrial heritage and passing it on to future generations.
