While the general structure of the Primitive Gold Chair looks to be compiled of a [stack of blocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fossil-furniture), this [bold seating](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/edgeofyr) is not some basic caveman's chair.

Created by design duo Piergiorgio Robino and Stefania Fersini of Nucleo furniture and design studio, this chair is made from a base of fiberglass and is finished off with a coating of 24 karat gold. When you sit on this bulky hunk of furniture, you can imagine that you are in fact sitting on a king's throne made out of a pile of gold bullion bars.

Luxurious and attention-grabbing, the Primitive Gold Chair is the perfect [accent piece](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-flap-chair) for an all white room, and it would fit nicely in a boldly furnished man cave.
