A stylish play on a household standby — in black, Ferm Living’s cashmere tan shade or a jolt of poppy red — Up Step Stool makes for a decorative yet functional addition to any room. Crafted from powder-coated iron, it has dual steps that have been treated with a rough surface coating to help prevent slipping. Light and easy-to-handle, it’s a versatile piece that can also be used as a side table for books, plants and other objects to display.
