I made this chair in collaboration with Mic Ritter, completed in 2021. It is made from recycled red hardwood. It has a hand carved seat, and the parts are hand shaped after being first roughed out on the bandsaw/spindle moulder. Finished in Osmo oil. It was originally made for the Transformation Exhibition at the Sydney Botanical Gardens in 2021, where it sold.
