Root Throne 1, Teak, Unique, 225cm high by 110cm wide by 95cm deep, Furniture, Nature, Contemporary sculpture

This piece is a unique teak wood sculpture, measuring 225cm high, 110cm wide, and 95cm deep. It functions as a chair, yet its form transcends traditional furniture. The sculpture is carved from a single tree root, preserving the natural twists, curves, and textures of the wood.

The seat has been carefully smoothed, providing a functional surface for sitting, while the rest of the root remains untouched. This contrast between polished and raw wood highlights the organic beauty of the material. Every knot, groove, and protrusion in the root adds character and visual interest, creating a sense of movement within a static form.

From the front, the throne feels monumental. Its high back rises dramatically, twisting and curling in unexpected directions. The sides and arms extend naturally from the root, giving the piece a sense of continuity and flow. Viewed from different angles, the throne reveals new details, hidden cavities, natural curves, and textural contrasts that emphasize the root’s original life force.

The teak itself contributes warmth and depth. Its rich tones catch the light, enhancing the interplay between smooth surfaces and rugged natural textures. The piece feels both grounded and dynamic, a fusion of function and sculpture.

Root Throne 1 invites both admiration and interaction. It is a statement piece that commands space while celebrating the raw beauty of nature. Its presence combines practicality with a sculptural, almost ritualistic, grandeur.
