Each Giddyup is unique, no two saddles will be the same. Tim Wigmore's Giddyup Rocking Stool($940) is made from old worn leather saddle, FSC certified gaboon marine grade plywood & natural oil finish. If you want to ride horse? Let's go from this.
"Old worn saddles have a beauty and patina of age that I find really attractive. The use of old, tired or broken saddles is an attempt to not only utilize an existing object, but also to elevate peoples perception of the old and pre-used. After having an old broken saddle sitting in my studio for some time I began to consider how I could design a piece that would utilise the beauty of the saddle." - Tim Wigmore, Clever Bastards. |
