Pearl Chair
This chair was created to bring awareness to the tracking situation in Eastern Europe. The Pearl is a symbol of an ancient story about the lengths one would go to in order to find a pearl of great price. We see these women as the same type of treasure.
The Pearl is hand sculpted and original in every way. Initially block glued in 2 and a half-inch walnut, then free-sculpted by Taylor Ross, it truly is a labor-intensive process. The yield is a seat and lumbar support strengthened by massive molded joints with a feminine final touch.
Materials
Shown in Arkansas walnut with Katalox pins from South America. Screws are strategically placed and used for strength. Sliding dovetail joints in the legs were developed in the leg production of wooden bathtubs in Mongolia in 2015.
