A curule-style stool manufactured in Mexico during the 1940s, reflecting the Spanish Colonial Revival or Hacienda style. This historicist movement aimed to recapture the austere and robust aesthetics of 16th and 17th-century viceroyalty furniture. Built from solid wood, the structure features the classic arched "X" frame connected by horizontal stretchers, an adaptation of historic campaign-style seating. The seat consists of a thick panel of stretched leather, secured to the frame with hand-forged iron hardware and nailheads. The original leather exhibits a heavily patinated surface with visible craquelure, deep texture, and tone variations consistent with its age.
