The "Materia" stool by Raúl de la Cerda and Onice is a quiet declaration of form. Conceived as a modular companion to the table and bench, it draws on both ancestral geometries and sculptural abstraction. Minimalist yet grounding, it honors the gesture of sitting as a moment of pause.
Design
Crafted entirely from a solid block of stone, each stool showcases the mineral’s unique veining and color gradations. Its rectilinear volume is softened by artisanal finishing, creating a piece that is simultaneously robust and graceful. Functionally versatile, it adapts to spaces as a seat, side table, or sculptural accent.
The “Materia” collection is a study in material presence and sculptural precision. The collection draws on the expressive weight of stone and the sensibility of Raúl’s design language — elemental, architectural, and bold. Each piece balances raw texture with refined form, transforming onyx into quiet statements of strength.
