Designed by Harry Thaler, a goldsmith studying design in London, England, the Pressed Chair is as light as a feather. In fact, this chair is so incredibly light that it can be held with just one finger! Made of a single sheet of 2.5 mm aluminum, the Pressed Chair receives its strength from the decorative indents pressed into the chair.

The minimal materials used in the Pressed Chair make it environmentally friendly; it is 100% recyclable and produces no waste throughout the manufacturing process. On Harry Thaler’s website, it is written about the Pressed Chair that the “value of design excels in the intent of creating a piece out of one single material without any joints or connectors.”
Thaler’s goldsmith background has led him from jewelry design to furniture and interior design. To see more of his work, visit his website at http://www.harrythaler.it/.

The Felty Chair by Lamar Pretorius is a simple chair with sleek, curvaceous legs that are cinched together like a waist. The upper body appears to be a modern take on a director’s chair. Made from industrial strength felt and stainless steel, it’s quite an attention grabber to say the least. The felt is hand stitched to ensure the highest quality. It is also pretreated to protect against stains, spills and dirt.
