Handmade to order in Gifu, Japan and part of the Wohl Hütte collection

Originally created as a gift for a child’s first year birthday. When placed at a table, the child is surrounded on all sides, and the stable legs greatly reduce the risk of tipping. The step is height-adjustable, allowing the chair to be used until around the age of seven.

Beautifully handcrafted from solid Japanese Oak, the tactile feeling of the timber contrasts nicely with the saddle leather child brace.

Japanese Oak is a prized hardwood that’s used in high-end furniture. Similar to European Oak but with a tighter grain due to slower growth conditions in Japan.

YOSHIYUKI AND JUNKO HORIBE

Husband and wife team Yoshiyuki and Junko Horibe create their beautiful designs in their workshop, a renovated old Japanese house in the Gifu Prefecture of Japan.

Their work redefines time honoured Japanese design, taking traditional timbers and craftsmanship into a fresh new direction, open to the influence of international design. The timber they select not only has unique aesthetic qualities and fragrances but also benefits such as emitting compounds that have a relaxing effect.

They emphasise functionality in their work, carefully selecting and combining finishes and materials to create their designs.
