Smoke Chair

Maarten Baas

Do not burn down the restaurant—burn the dining chair! The beauty and character of charred wood are now captured in a durable material, creating the uncanny sensation of sitting on burnt furniture. Maarten Baas translated his fascination with the element of fire through an innovative approach, capturing blazing flames in the solidity of wood. Each chair is unique thanks to this exceptional production process. Like the Phoenix, Smoke objects are reborn from their ashes, gaining new vitality and beauty in a highly unusual way.
