Throughout Sergio Rodrigues' career, many of his pieces underwent adjustment, adapted to new material resources and production conditions, or even reinvented.
The Moleca armchair is one of those cases. Created in 1963, the chair was an adaptation of the Mole sofa and armchairs, from 1957, for a collapsible and packable version. This piece has a gorgeous solid rosewood structure and new leather upholstery, according to historical references of the time. The leather straps are the originals.
The purpose of the design was to adjust the volumes and measures, allowing the furniture to be exported under more economical conditions and enabling the competition of Brazilian design in the international market.
In this way, Mole's design gained a fittings system, allowing the shipment of components inside a box designed especially for exportation, allowing the assembly at the customer's home.
This chair is in very good vintage condition and received new upholstery in leather. Wood restoration service by our Workshop is included as a courtesy.
