About the Item

Pair of country-style chairs/thrones created in the northern Argentine bush with native carob wood or "Takku" _which in Quechua means "the tree"_. They are characterized by the slimness and height of their backs, and by the presence of geometric figures that refer to the symbols used in local furniture and textiles made by the local artisans. The thrones are handmade by craftsmen from the town of Colonia Dora, in the province of Santiago del Estero, Argentina. The joints and the rustic finishes of the wood are typical of this pure and honest language that give it a singular and differential character. As an outstanding element, a conical wooden plank is covered in raw cowhide and the stitching in fine colt leather worked with the traditional technique of "soguería criolla" from the city of Tandil in the province of Buenos Aires by the amateur craftsman Jerónimo Call, which unites and contrast techniques and materialities in a unique way. The seat duo is named after Cristian's maternal grandparents and acts as a tribute to family roots, in a limited series of 12 numbered pairs ( includes a certificate of authenticity numbered and signed by the artist). *Please note that all our pieces are meticulously handmade by master artisans one piece at a time so you may expect minor distinctions that will make your purchase special and truly one of a kind. *Dimensions, stone irregularities and finishing may differ from the photographed item as there may be a slight variation inherent in the manufacturing of handmade products.

Cristian Mohaded

Cristián Mohaded is an Argentine artist and designer born in the countryside (Catamarca, 1980). He is a graduate of the National University of Córdoba, and today he shares his time between Buenos Aires and Milan.

As a designer, he has always worked closely with artisans from his home country, exploring traditions, crafts, and local culture, blurring the line between design and art. Cristián also works internationally as an independent designer in the fields of furniture, lighting, products, and installation. From private commissions to industrial companies, he is dedicated to developing and designing objects with a strong focus on materiality, artisanal techniques, and production processes.

Throughout his career as a designer, he won several design awards and special mentions and has participated in numerous national and international fairs and exhibitions. His works were selected and incorporated into the permanent collection of the Philadelphia Museum of Art (USA), and at the Musée Les Arts Décoratifs in Paris. Likewise, he is already part of the Argentine design legacy of the IDA Foundation (Research in Argentine Design), being one of the young leaders of Latin American design. He was selected to represent his country with the Monte Abierto project for the design of the Argentine Pavilion at the London Design Biennial in 2021.

On 2021 he presented “Territorio Hibrido,” his first solo exhibition at the National Museum of Decorative Arts, and was named Ambassador of the Marca Pais of Argentina, for the recognition of cultural diversity, indigenous materials, and the productive capacities of the territory in his work as a designer, with the aim of promoting the formation of an understandable image of what is Argentine at an international level.

He was recently awarded by a prestigious national jury with the Konex-Diploma of Merit Award 2022 (Visual Arts), by the Konex Foundation.
