The 'Daisee' chair has been designed by Alex Borrell (AKA Borrellski) as a seating solution that prioritizes a sustainable construction to make it suited for any modern living space. The chair is crafted with locally sourced ash timber that has been repurposed to give the seating solution an eco-friendly edge and doesn't feature any glue, fabrics, powder coatings, sealants, varnishes or artificial paints in the construction. The three-legged chair uses steel tubing for the legs to give it a simple yet sturdy overall construction.
The 'Daisee' chair has a plastic-free design that also features natural beeswax layering to protect the materials from daily wear. The chair embraces rusticity by showing off knots, grains and discoloration in the wooden materials to give it more character.
