Wotro Armchair
Summary
Made of welded reclaimed steel, which has been wrapped in grey nylon cord, with a woven seat of nylon cord. This chair combines metalwork and weaving, two crafts for which West Africa is reknown, with a minimalist contemporary design. The precise, grid pattern of the seat replicates a computer generated 3-D design, but is produced by skilled artisans.
