It features a metal frame completely concealed by dense, multi-tonal brown natural fiber rope. The long strands are typically hand-knotted or layered to cascade from the top of the backrest down to the floor, creating a textured, "hairy" silhouette that blurs the line between furniture and art.

This style of seating often utilizes materials like raffia, leather strips, or rope to achieve its organic, unruly aesthetic. It has a similar look and feel to the Campana Bros Vermelha chair and Cabana Cabinet as well as "The Morning After" chair by Corito Escario-Yu. This is a rare find - an almost one-of-a-kind piece that will truly spark conversation. See less
