Ganser Stool

This striking stool, made of briccola wood, typical of the Venetian lagoon, evokes the now disappearing role of the "gansèr", a retired gondolier who helps gondola passengers embark and disembark with the help of a hooked cane. This piece retains the marks of the wood's erosion and the slight inclination of its top is an invitation to sit or a help to get up, like the gentle gestures of the gansèr.
