PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

About this Brass Bar Stool

Hand-sculpted using the ancient lost-wax casting technique, the Ink blackened brass bar stool captures fluid movement and refined craftsmanship. Each piece is cast from a steel-backed wax mold, then filled with molten brass and cooled. The surrounding wax melts away, revealing the raw form. Multiple rounds of prototype testing ensure stability and balance.

The final stool is scrubbed, patinated, and polished, with finishes ranging from soft matte black to warm gold. Its curved frame and flowing lines echo the elegance of Chinese ink paintings.

The Ink bar stool combines artistic form, craftsmanship, and functional design, offering both aesthetic and sensory appeal for contemporary interior design spaces.

Note

Brass is durable and suitable for both indoor and outdoor spaces. Sharp objects may scratch its surface. Over time, brass oxidizes and may lose its shine, especially in humid or coastal areas.Small pinholes and surface variations are part of the lost wax casting process, giving each piece a unique character.

We offer two finishes: matte black and polished brass. Matte black requires no maintenance and keeps its color. Polished brass is unlacquered, allowing easy re-polishing when desired. Metal cream restores its natural shine.
