The Corallo armchair is created from hand-curved steel wire finished with epoxy paints. Painstakingly bent and soldered by hand, the wire is then smoothed to eliminate any jutting edges, and made silky to the touch. Like a jumbled up mass of string thrown into a waste paper bin, the disjointed construction from some angles appears unsound, unfinished, unrefined. Each chair is woven in a unique, irregular fashion, making each a veritable one-off.
