Zanat Quiet Stool
Quiet Stool
QUIET STOOL
Designed by Jasna Mujkić
Quiet stool holds a special place in our hearts as it is one of the first contemporary designs, which we have developed. The boxy top and square light legs give the impression that the stool was carved out of a chuck of timber.
The hand-carved motif was designed and delivered in a way to give the stool a special pattern building purpose. When one makes a line-up of Quiet stools, the hand carved motifs of adjacent stools match up and create what visually becomes a single piece, where each one is a part of the larger puzzle.

JASNA MUJKIĆ
“Zanat for me represents the joy of work both in process, and result. Here it is a part of business culture to support the creative process and to respect a designer’s vision. With the beauty of wood and the poetical skill of woodcarvers, Zanat is a precious environment for designers.”
Born in 1972, Jasna Mujkić is an associate professor at Academy of Fine Arts in Sarajevo. In addition to her teaching career, Jasna is an active product designer, with a special interest in furniture design.
She is the author of an official arts textbook used in Bosnian public schools. Her designes have been exhibited in a number of international design exhibtions.
Jasna was the first designer who collaborated with Zanat (then Rukotvorine) on the modernization of its hand-carved motifs and their application to products of modern design (e.g. Quiet chair and stool).
Jasna’s Ombra coffee table (designed for Zanat) is the winner of the Interior Innovation Award – IMM 2012. Jasna Mujkić is the first professional designer who has created a modern design piece for our company, five years before Zanat was officially launched. The objects Jasna designed for Zanat, like the Ombra tables, are still admired by some of the elite designers we are collaborating with.
Jasna opened our eyes to an endless world of design creations based on the woodcarving technique we have practiced without much innovation in design for almost a century. We have continued this collaboration on different kind of creative projects until the present day.

CARE

WARRANTY
Zanat provides a five-year limited warranty against manufacturing defects in standard products (materials and workmanship). Wear, tear and product damages is not covered under this warranty. The claims will not cover minor checks in wood, which result from relative humidity changes. Cracks in wood that result as a consequence of air humidity outside the above-indicated safe range, discolorations resulting from direct exposure of products to sunlight or otherwise improper use will not be covered under the warranty. Claims from end users must be submitted to the dealer from whom the product was purchased in order to be considered.
WOOD
All wood used in Zanat’s products comes from sustainably managed forests or private fruit orchards FSC certificates for forest-originating wood are available upon request. Moreover, in 2021 Zanat undertook a commitment to plant three new trees for every tree we used to produce our products. Color variations and small healthy knots in wood are indications of material authenticity and cannot be considered a defect.
Wood is a hygroscopic material which absorbs and sheds moisture to adopt to the humidity of the environment in which it is placed and it expands or shrinks as a consequence.
To minimize checking and cracking, all Zanat products should be kept indoors and air humidity should not be less than 40% or more than 70%. Humidity outside this range is not optimal for human health and can result in product damage.
