This is great solution for more conservative interiors without deviating from the modern concept. The tapered legs borrow inspiration from modern Italian
designs from the 50s. The opulence and size of the back contrasts with the tapered legs. Available upholstered or made with water hyacinth fiber.
The products on this line are
hand made in Bangkok, Thailand using the finest wood and
materials available. This exquisite furniture features Water
Hyacinth, an
aquatic plant abundant in Thailand. Ingenious Thai artists weave stalks of
water hyacinth together to create this elegant furniture. The
natural texture of water
hyacinth absorbs light, which gives it a soft but masculine
appearance. The dried stalks are durable and breathable making
them suitable for any climate.
It is easy to care for and is naturally resistant to
deterioration and fading. All Teak Wood is aged and dried before
purchased for manufacturing, then dried
again at the factory before construction begins. This ensures
that it will not crack or warp even in the driest environments.
Construction begins with carpenters building
a solid wooden frame. The frames are then sent to the weaving factory,
where dried stalks of water hyacinth are hand braided and woven
over spines of rattan.
As the braids are created and woven together, artisans
tack the braids to the wooden frame every other loop. This
attention to detail ensures that the water hyacinth
will remain in place and not shift or become lose with time.
