Italian Lacquered Goatskin Stool in the Manner of Aldo Tura, 1960s

$3,700.00

An Italian stool from the 1960s, crafted in lacquered goatskin parchment in the manner of Aldo Tura. The seat, softly contoured for comfort, is sheathed in a richly mottled surface of deep brown with subtle purple undertones—its organic patterning heightened by the glossy lacquer. Slender tapering legs continue the parchment finish, capped with rubber feet.

Tura’s influence is unmistakable: a material-driven design where everyday form is elevated through the rare and the luxurious. Compact in scale yet refined, the stool layers seamlessly into a room—as a vanity seat, a sculptural accent beside a lounge chair, or a perch in an entryway.

DIMENSIONS: 16.5"W x 12.25"D x 17"H

ORIGIN: Italy

PERIOD: 1960s

MATERIALS: Parchment

CONDITION: Great vintage condition. The lacquered goatskin shows minor scuffs and surface scratches throughout, consistent with age and use. No losses to the parchment finish, and the stool remains sturdy. Paint marks and wear to the rubber feet. Maker’s mark present along the underside.
