Saturn Chair, Red Coated Steel Frame And Red Wool By Lara Bohinc

The distinctive Saturn chair is a return to the split sphere concepts Bohinc originally created for her jewellery collections such as Sun and Moon (2007) and Solaris (2012). This form has now been evolved to create bilboquet style ball and cup sections, which are grouped to make an undulating chair seat. The lower semi sphere metal constructions cradle the soft upper spheres of Bohinc’s now trademark plump and deep upholstery. A semi-circular ring seems to float above the seat, providing one commodious back and armrest, fixed to the seat with delicate metalwork. With sustainability increasingly shaping the design world, at Bohinc Studio we rely on durable design solutions.?‘In order to be environmentally friendly, pieces have to be either durable or made from materials that can be fully recycled and transformed completely into new products’, says Lara Bohinc, whose furniture for Bohinc Studio is predominantly made of metal. ‘Metal is not only long-lasting, it can also be reused infinitely. With its inherent longevity and durability, metal is viable from both economic and environmental point of view, making it one of the only truly eco-friendly materials to make furniture with. No other material can be used over and over again to produce such long lasting usage.’ The chair is made in powder coated steel and Italian wool fabric. The chair is made by hand in Portugal.Each piece of furniture is individually numbered and comes with a signed "Certificate of Authenticity" to prove that it is Bohinc Studio original.Material: powder coated steel and Italian wool fabricDimensions: 460 x 460 x H 690 mm.
