CHIPPENSTEEL is a chair design by Oskar Zięta, created through a process of controlled metal deformation. The material reacts to the given form and generates a characteristic surface that, despite the use of steel, copper, or aluminum, conveys a soft, upholstered impression. The design is inspired by classic 18th-century English armchairs and combines historical design language with modern manufacturing technology. Production involves laser cutting, welding, and inflation of metal sheets, creating a three-dimensional structure. CHIPPENSTEEL represents the fusion of design, technology, and artisanal precision.
Zieta Studio is a design studio that shapes metal in an innovative way. Using its proprietary FiDU technology, the team "inflates" flat metal parts, creating lightweight, stable, and unique objects. Art, technology, and material research are closely intertwined in this process. The studio emphasizes sustainable work, uses durable metals, and produces many of its objects from a single material. This results in furniture and sculptures that are modern, characterful, and functional all at once.
Good quality. There are small paint blemishes on both front bottom chair legs. The foot design has been changed. The color is no longer available in the collection.
