Saci Is One Devil Of A Chair

 

SaciSaci

 

 

 

In Brazilian folklore, Saci, is a one-legged boy with holes in his hands, who smokes a pipe and wears a red hat.  He's a very devilish chap, who appears and disappears at will and can make one's belongings mysteriously disappear as well.   Brazilian designer Rafael Morgan has created a devilish chair as a tribute to Saci, who seems to have made two of the Saci Chair legs disappear!

 

 

 

Believe it or not, you can sit on the Saci Chair without falling on your rear.  The devil that Saci is simply created an optical illusion by molding clear acrylic over the skinny rod legs.

 

 

 I guess Saci, or the devil, really is in the details!

nice but

call me a conventionalist but i'd like to see this chair with all 4 legs - im loving the form of the arms and the way they connect to the seat with a gentle bump and the colours are so retro i love it.
