Sergio Rodrigues

Brazil, 1958

Frame in solid Brazilian Cherry in 5 different tones with varnish finish or in solid Imbuia wood with clear varnish or stain finish.

Upholstery: Polyurethane foam with polyester fibre.

The 'Mole' footrest accompanies Sergio Rodrigues' most iconic design, the 'Mole' armchair (meaning "soft" in Portuguese). Designed in 1961, the 'Mole' pieces are comprised of a solid rounded wood frame, adjustable leather support straps and a floppy, over•sized luxurious leather cushion. Robust and extremely comfortable, the 'Mole' sparked an international design trend that favored comfort, and a new attention to scale, over the rigid and antiseptic concurrent design trends, as it was awarded first prize at the IV Furniture Bienal in Italy.
