02 — The Story
Mochoarte began with the legacy of a smith. A man whose skill and quiet dedication left a mark on the family that went on to pick up his tools.
The father carried the craft forward, shaping his own one-of-a-kind pieces. After retiring, the chance came to turn a lifelong practice into a small family-run brand. Today the whole household lends a hand: someone sands, someone is behind the camera, someone is answering a message.
Most of what we work with is reclaimed. Wood with its own grain, its own knots, its own past. We try to honour it. Each piece keeps a fragment of where it came from, and adds a new chapter to where it's going.
