Sergio
The Sergio stool takes inspiration from the Mocho stool, one of the first notable pieces by classic Brazilian furniture designer, Sérgio Rodrigues. Rodrigues was moved at the sight of a woman in the Brazilian countryside milking a cow, which motivated his initial sculpt of the Mocho milking stool in solid wood. This effortlessly simple and soft piece features a round seat and three legs. The early 1954 version of the Mocho had a deeper seat and a small, well-fitting cushion. After market modifications shifted its design, the depth of the seat decreased and Sergio removed the cushion, leaving the seat more natural.
Materials
Solid Brazilian Guajuvira wood
Guajuvira (Patagonula americana) is a very durable and sturdy wood species with a distinct contrast of dark and light colouration that makes it the perfect choice for a wide variety of looks, whether that be rustic or high-end contemporary. Native to Brazil, Argentina, and Paraguay, Guajuvira’s colouring consists of off-white to brown sapwood hues and shades of dark browns and almost black heartwood hues. Its grain is a mix of irregular patterns and straight grain with a satin smooth luster finish.
Each Guajuvira solid wood piece is distinctive with its own characteristics and imperfections. These unique imperfections bring out the inherent beauty in your piece. These natural traits set your product apart from other cookie cutter furnishing choices, and will quickly become a focal point of discussion in your home.
