Buttons – Tjimkje

Button chair

This innovative chair is inspired by the wooden button we know from the clothing industry. The two buttons – made of solid oak – are strung together by magnified carbon fibre yarn to form the seat and backrest of the chair.

The yarn is traditionally manufactured by hand and impregnated with epoxy, dictating the exceptional construction of the chair. A surprising and modern take on traditional production techniques adding a whole new dimension to this ancient craft.
