These pieces are composed of a solid Rosewood structure with turned feet and can be used as seats and supports. Magrini Stool follows the same formula as the Mocho Stool, the first piece designed by Rodrigues for his own company.
Both creations translated the concept of informality through its design resources: low pieces on which the user had to crouch to sit, aided by handles that allow it to be moved anywhere.
Sergio liked to name his pieces with the names of people he knew. Franco Magrini, an Italian production engineer, was a good friend of Sergio and worked with him at the restaurant Papo de Anjo – which opened after he left Oca in 1968.
