About the Item

Characterized by their elegant simplicity, these stools feature hand-woven cane seats gracefully curved at the edges, supported by slender black iron legs that create a striking visual balance. This iconic combination of natural cane and industrial iron became a hallmark of Hauner’s work for Forma, celebrated for its lightness, functionality, and organic modern aesthetic. The woven seats showcase beautiful texture and craftsmanship, while the minimalist frames allow them to blend seamlessly into both contemporary and vintage interiors. Designer Bio: Carlo Hauner's (1927-1997) partnership with Martin Eisler (1913-1977) embodied a new era of Brazilian Modernist design, establishing the iconic Brazilian Furniture company Forma as co-founders and head designers. Born in Brescia, Italy, Hauner began his career as a painter in Milan before eventually emigrating and establishing himself in Brazil. He founded Móveis Artesanal in São Paulo, later evolving into the renowned Forma in 1953 after partnering with Martin Eisler. Hauner and Eisler differentiated themselves by pioneering new production methods while simultaneously incorporating Brazilian motifs and cultural influences. Their skilled craftsmanship, coupled with the use of local materials such as hardwood, leather, and iron, resulted in elegant and versatile pieces that attracted a wider audience. Hauner and Eisler revolutionized furniture design, now internationally recognized as one of the leading mid-century Modern Brazilian design companies.
