Chair 5 by Pawel Grunert looks like a sort of bentwood chair avant la lettre, or – in Plain English – a tongue in cheek prehistorical bentwood chair..

About Pawel Grunert:

Born in 1965 in Warsaw, he studied at the Department of Interior Design of the Academy of Fine Arts of Warsaw. In 1990 he graduated with a honorable mention from Studio of Furniture for work titled M Y C H A I R. He design and made hundreds of furniture objects, sculptures and three-dimensional arrangement. What is worse – he still designs…

His works are placed in private collections and in musea in Poland and abroad. His works are published in books, magazines and on websites.
He works in the countryside near Warsaw. He is more a hobbyist than a designer. It could be said that he cultivates and loves furniture. All signs on sky and land indicate that it is unpunishable in polish legislation furnish-fil. Surely, he will reincarnate in the form of a chair…

“Let’s start the week with featuring a Golden Chair” I thought and picked one of my Golden Chair Pinterest Board: The Golden Magistretti Karma Chair by Basel, Switzerland based Okay Art. Actually it is a gilded Selene Chair by Vico Magistretti.

Renaissance by Recycling

Okayart turns old design furniture into new and novel creations.

Unfortunately, not all pieces of furniture requiring repairs may be restored to their original condition. And as we do not want to sell ruins and throwing them away would be a shame, we prefer creating something new by way of novel combinations.

Okayart professionally restores defective furniture to once again render them functional. We then select other materials – for instance precious gold leaf combined with cloths from England and Scotland – and send these refurbished pieces of design furniture into a new orbit. We gift them, so to say, with a new karma.

In this manner, we are creating original, limited-edition, and unique pieces (collectors should watch out!) that can turn into much noticed attention getters.
