Crochet Chair (prototype)
This Crochet Chair prototype is one of two prototypes made for the Crochet Furniture series launched in 2006 (also offering lamps and coffee tables). It was first hand-crocheted, then dipped in resin and placed on a chair mold to dry. Finally the mold was removed, rendering the form a fully functional seat. This object debuted at Design Miami/ 2006, where it was exhibited in Smart Deco, a collaboration between Barry Friedman, Ltd. and the highly influential Dutch design group Droog. Only twenty were produced in the subsequent production edition. By combining the traditional craft of crochet with contemporary design, Wanders has created an object that offers a contemporary twist on hand-sewn “upholstery.”
