With a frame and a shell produced in recycled steel, old scrap-metal gains new life in a chair constructed with the means of proud traditional craftsmanship. An extra effort is put into the details of this chair to pay tribute to this craftsmanship. This is especially seen in the connections in the frame and also with the sewing of the vegetable tanned leather pad onto the shell. The surface of the steel is not painted but black-oxidized – again an old technique that also considers environmental issues. Many hours needs to be put into the construction of this chair. This is possible in a developing country as India where the wages still are very low. At the same time by producing in this country, we have the chance to improve their working conditions through CSR and to support the workers in a sustainable way.
