Cuneiform chair & ottoman

This armchair and footstool are reinterpretations of tribal furniture from remote parts of Eastern Afghanistan. The asymmetric, sculptural armchair also features intricate hand carvings inspired by the cuneiform scripts found on tablets from ancient Mesopotamia. The animal head details of the back rest and the lopsided leg are direct references to antique Nurestani furniture. The upholstery fabric is carefully selected in harmony with the carved pattern, adding a bit of colour and contemporizing these handcrafted pieces.
