You cannot mistake the
Heritage collection for the original aluminum chair -
Philippe Starck has transmitted his personality to the
original classic and what results is modern, useful, and
fun. There are stacking chairs and stacking barstools
with STRANGE ALIEN ARMS and there is even a rocking
chair. You have never seen a rocking chair like this!
It takes eight
man-hours to hand polish each chair. Hand-polished
chairs develop a natural "patina" with age and use,
similar to any fine metal. Every inch of each chair is
hand brushed in the direction of the aluminum grain.
This gives the metal warmth in appearance.
Craftsmen grind each
weld flush for a one-piece appearance. It’s a
super-precise technique - you won't see this on any
other aluminum chair.
Brushed chairs are
anodized, an electrolytic process that changes the
surface of the aluminum chair from aluminum to
diamond-hard aluminum oxide. Guaranteed for Life. |
