Mikadokun Chair

A low chair made from light, smooth ash wood. The seat is a large, even board slanting backwards. It rests on four short, protruding legs that are connected with stretchers, all made from turned poles with pointed ends. They are partially painted with bands of primary colours - blue, red, yellow - to resemble the popular game called mikado. The back legs support two longer, slanting poles that hold the back rest made from a smaller, rectangular board.
