Mark Tuckey’s Cult Furniture Gets a New Look
I can't help but wonder if The Rolling Stones has been on high rotation in Mark Tuckey's workshop, as the Australian furniture designer has turned some of his most beloved pieces black.
"No colours any more, I want them to turn black...Black as night, black as coal..."
The stunning new-look Scorched range includes the iconic Eggcup stool, and the matte black finish is bang on point this season.
Tuckey's Eggcup stool has reached cult status as a modern design classic, appearing in some of the Australia's most stylish spaces.
Each solid timber stool is turned by hand and given a soap finish, enhancing the natural beauty of the wood grain. These individual characteristics ensure that each piece is utterly unique.
Here, the original Eggcup has been use variously as a bedside table, side table and stool, evidence of its classic design and versatility.
