Another addition to the "LACE" trend in interior design is the new Crochet Chair that Marcel Wanders showed for the first time at the Smart Deco - A Period Room of the 21st Century event, is really beautiful! A seat constructed from individual, hand-sewn crochet flowers stitched together, formed over a mould and stiffened with resin - it uses the same technique used for his famous Crochet Table, manufactured by Moooi.
