smoke.

I love what Maarten Baas has done with this unconventional range of furniture, Smoke. 
The chairs that Baas produces have been burnt and then preserved in a clear epoxy coating and then re upholstered, creating a contrasting feeling of new vs. old. The beauty and character of burnt wood is captured in a long lasting material and brings much depth and an intriguing quality to the finished product.  I love the unfinished feel and how it still possesses so much beauty and fragility. Mooi
