The N1 Chair is a hand-carved collectible chair from the Erosion Collection by Gabor Gobi, transformed from a reclaimed mid-century wooden form. Its proportions remain those of a dining chair; what has changed is everything else. Yakisugi charring brings the surface to near-black, hand-carved details introduce deliberate irregularity, and a thin cork layer on the seat offers comfort through material logic rather than upholstery.
The process begins with material chosen for what it has already become — mid-century wood, residual limestone, cork carrying the marks of previous use. Yakisugi deepens the surface before natural oils and beeswax are applied. Hand-carved details work with the wood's grain and imperfection, not against them.
What the process leaves behind is legible on the surface: scorched, carved, handled — a texture that reads as both ancient and intentional. The object seems shaped by restraint as much as craft. Light falls into the surface differently each time.
Functions as a dining chair, accent seat, or sculptural presence in a curated room. Cork seat. One of a kind; wood character varies between objects.
