Trend Spotting - The Equipale Chair



In 2012, I spotted some equipale furniture in a late 60s decorating mag. This Mexican handmade leather furniture has been popping out at me right, left, and centre within the last month. Traditional Equipal furniture is handcrafted from tanned pigskin and cedar or rosewood strips. Each piece is unique; like all unwaxed, natural leather will improve with age.


Take a look at the different styles. I can't decide which one I like the best - probably the lounge chair and peacock chair (of course).
