Afro-Chaises
The « Afro-Chairs » series consists of six chairs inspired by various African tribes.
Despite their differences, each speaks the same conceptual language and « lives » around one dining table while retaining their individuality, expressing a message of peaceful coexistence.
Around a table, this work gets all its sense.
Each chair has so much character that you will feel like you have permanent guests in your house. Each exhibits a symbolic detail which captures the essence of its identity and distinguishes it from the others.
