Showtime Chair (Regal)

Featured In The Vine, New York, NY

Item details

This Showtime Chair, located in the Entrance of The Vine in NYC, is a combination of rattan strips and coco twigs inlaid side by side, then covered with resin. The process Oggetti Designs used to create it is laborious: repeated sanding, layering resin, more sanding, and more resin gives this material a lustrous, curious finish.

Oggetti Designs

Miami, FL

Oggetti imports unique pieces from the Philippines and Italy. They enjoy the traveling, studio visits, and finding product that will be different and make a statement. Artisans in the Philippines have always done inlays on wood carcass. Whether it is shell, skin, or twigs, these designs are handmade and take a lot of craft and patience to construct. They have done well with their line of furniture made by inlaying twig and bamboo into a variety of unique forms. From the Vine in NYC to many other hotel properties, this collection is well suited for lobbies and common areas. This collection is also suited for outdoor use as it uses a waterproof resin.
