'The Firefly Chair' 2011 53.75"x 20.75"x 43" Oak, Plaited Leather, Steel, Aluminum, Rare Earth Metals
'The Firefly Chair' is Veraseri Designs continuation of the Tolkienian inspired line of home accessories that fulfill multiple functionalities. The first being true comfort for the seater. The second being unbridled lines, and unique visual interest unlike any other seating device. And finally, the third being nocturnal visual transformation. An exceedingly powerful Rare Earth glow medium is selectively infused into the surface of the Red Oak giving it a brilliant Firefly green glow at night as if it were lit by a million Fireflies. A task not easily completed due to the recent Rare Earth shortage. The tree this piece was constructed from was struck by lightning upon the designers property, a property that for some reason is very prone to such an event.
The back rest of the piece is completed by four plait braided leather cord that is then weaved into a lovely diamond pattern that is both strong and exceedingly comfortable.
Hewn by hand for over five months, this piece is a wholly unique addition to any home where Tolkienian dreams reside.
