The fishing stage is an iconic and integral part of Outport Newfoundland. They stand delicately and perilously above the water and is where the inshore fishery brought its bounty to prepare salted cod for trade with merchants.
The Stage Armchair, designed by Anthony Guex, is inspired by the frame of the fishing stage. This piece presents an appreciation of the ‘super normal’ with quiet aesthetics that prioritize utility and tranquility desirable in modern urban life. Connecting past to present to future, the Stage Armchair expresses the value of the permanent over the disposable; it is made to be trusted and treasured.
Made using regionally sourced birch by our craftspeople at Fogo Island Workshops. Available in a range of finishes including hand-buffed Danish Oil, which deepens the amber colour of the wood, and White Oil, which neutralizes the amber tone for a raw matte look. Both absorb into the wood and richen the grain. A variety of coloured lacquers are available.
