Jay Boggo offers a design deeply connected to the land, sculptural movement, and the sacredness of handmade expertise.
Cacau Stool/ Side Table (2023)
Pegasus White Dolomite Marble 42 cm H x 40 cm D
Jay Boggo is a Brazilian visual artist, designer, and creative director renowned for a multidisciplinary practice that seamlessly bridges fashion, art, and furniture. His work is defined by a profound dialogue with the natural world, allowing the density and inherent imperfections of raw materials to dictate his creative process. By translating raw mineral energy into organic, timeless forms, Boggo creates pieces that invite both tactile engagement and quiet contemplation.
Created in 2023, the Banco Cacau (Cacao Bench) reinterprets the iconography of cacao as "Brazilian gold” a symbol of natural wealth historically rooted in the nation’s identity. Following initial editions in natural and carbonized wood the first pair of which was acquired for the permanent collection of the National Museum in Rio de Janeiro.
In partnership with Maqstone, this new edition exchanges the warmth of wood for the permanence of stone, while preserving the fluid, organic forms of the original. Produced in a limited series of eight numbered pieces, the work offers a singular encounter between mineral brutality and sculptural delicacy.
