This oxidized steel stool is a contemporary Mexican design piece from the Cowgirl collection by Amalgame Studio, featuring a timeworn patinated surface developed through controlled oxidation. This oxidized steel stool explores steel as a living material, where industrial hardness is transformed into a textured finish that records time and use.
The Cowgirl collection, designed by Amalgame Studio for Toro Manifesto, investigates steel as a surface in constant transformation. Through controlled oxidation processes, the oxidized steel stool develops a natural patina, with tonal and textural variations that evoke the memory of skin and the passage of time.
Rooted in Mexico’s vaquera traditions, the conceptual framework reflects resilience and independence. In a horizon where cattle have vanished, the cowgirl remains as a symbolic figure, carrying the legacy of territory and labor. This narrative is embedded within the oxidized steel stool, connecting cultural identity with contemporary design.
Each piece is handcrafted, resulting in unique variations in oxidation, tone, and surface texture. This contemporary stool functions as both a seating element and a collectible design object, defined by its material depth and conceptual foundation. By Amalgame
