Summary

A cross-cultural chair that merges Ming round-back proportions with the Bamileke earth-spider throne. The piece expresses “round heaven, square earth” through structure—curved arms meet a circular base and a square seat with birch inlay—so the form carries the story. Walnut, hand finishing, and Ming-style joinery keep it functional and calm rather than decorative.
