Rocking Recliner by Let’s from India
Let’s is a collective movement from India that’s aim is to salvage items, that have been thrown away and give them a new life. ‘lets’ hopes people will see that products can have many lives and still be valuable.
Nupur Goenka initiated the program and believes that some of the best items are found on the streets of India. Items that have been transformed are wooden chairs, window panes, plastic bags and cartons.
