Foldable Tripod Seat
Foldable tripod seat combines style and convenience. Very stable cowhide seat and convenient leather carry strap.
Solid beechwood legs are slightly scorched with a satin finish. Each leg is finished with a chrome steel ground spike. 330 lb capacity and seat height is 30" when unfolded. Spikes go 2" into the ground, so in use height will be 28". As each seat is handmade with natural materials, subtle variations will occur. Excellent German craftsmanship.

The Craftsman
In 1868, in the small community of Lindewerra, Germany, an unassuming man named Johannes began producing walking sticks as supplemental income. It was his son, Louis, who took production to a new level—by developing new styles, tools and techniques.
During the volatile post-WWII years, the business was moved from Lindewerra (in East Germany) across the border to Bad Sooden-Allendorf (West Germany). By the 1970s, over 600,000 sticks were produced annually. As production and facilities grew, the business expanded into orthopedic walking aids.
Today, the same family now employs over 40 craftsmen in two production facilities. Their focus remains on classic walking sticks, natural canes and hunting sticks. Alloy and carbon poles have also been added to their product offering. Although they are outfitted with modern and efficient equipment, many of wooden sticks are crafted the same way they were in 1868—by careful hands, vintage tools, and unparalleled skill.

I would only recommend this to a very tall friend. It is like sitting on a bar stool. I wanted something I could take along when tending sheep in the high desert so that I could perch from time to time while the sheep were grazing. It is a little heavy but I could manage that if it were not so tall. It is beautiful but not very practical for a short woman.

Very well made and sturdy. Tall, I am 5'2" my toes barely touch the ground. Makes an excellent Woodland wildlife photography seat.
