BLAKE CHAIR

WHITE OAK, NATURAL SOAP FINISH

An exploration of the relationship between the fluidity of form and resistance of the material, this chair balances the strength of white oak and the delicateness of curves. Part of white oak’s beauty is derived from its dense, tight grain, making the wood challenging to cut and shape.

Lap joints were chosen for their simplicity of form while highlighting the attractive end grain. A natural soap finish provides non-toxic, soft-to-the-touch protection while maintaining the light, natural color of the wood.
