Designed before the Oca store foundation, the Mocho stool is undoubtedly one of Sergio Rodrigues's masterpieces.
As a free interpretation of a typical rural artifact, the cow-milking stool, the Mocho stool synthesizes both functions' simplicity: a piece that could work as a seat and support for objects. It is a low piece on which the user has to crouch to sit, aided by a handle that allows it to be moved anywhere.
The year was 1954, and Rodrigues sought a skilled lathe-operating carpenter and showed him the stool design. Right there, they produced the very first piece. It has been a success since then, arousing great interest from the public and other furniture manufacturers.
This pair of rosewood Mocho stools is in very good vintage condition, presenting the original cushions – as the first models produced by Oca.
