Bicorn

Bicorn is a chair with a carved, solid wood seat and back and a nanoceramic coated tubular stainless-steel frame.‎ Materials: Carved solid Walnut, Iroko, Oak, Ash or Ebonized Ash.‎ Base Options: Satin Nickel, Bronze, Satin Brass, Gunmetal nanoceramic coated tubular Stainless Steel.‎The chair is stackable to four high.‎The Bicorn Chair was the result of an exciting and challenging collaboration with Isay Weinfeld, who invited us to create designs for a landmark dining space in New York City.‎ The chairs had rigorous criteria – they needed to be suitable for outdoor use, they needed to be stackable, and they also needed to be in one of our distinctive, beautiful materials.‎ For the chair and companion café table, we chose carved solid Iroko wood and bronzed stainless steel.‎ This chair is pure BassamFellows: light, with fully integrated elements.‎ The arms are wholly cantilevered and appear to float unsupported, while the metal frame forms a back loop that can be used as a handle to assist with moving.‎ The backrest and seat are both solid carved wood.‎ There is also an indoor version with a padded, upholstered seat.‎ The matching table uses the same materials as the chairs, with four continuous bent tubes that create the feet for the design, converging into a quad column.‎ The name for the chair seemed so obvious to us – when we looked at the finished shape, we immediately saw Napoleon’s iconic maritime millinery.‎
