SITZ-GUT! (seat_well!)

This extraordinary seating furnitures of solid wood are real works of art, created by nature, inspired by Alexander Ortlieb. Watching them, touching them, sitting on them – feeling their elementary power – is a real treat. For producing these very special pieces we select particularly richly grained wood, the result of endless struggles for survival; the rough cut is done at the freshly felled trunk. Following a period of resting and drying, during which the wood ripens over several years, precision work can be started sometime: What has started with the rough chainsaw, ends with the fine finish and an affectionate wiping-up of the last abrasive dust. Cracks in the wood lend every Sitz-Gut (Seat-Well) piece its own character; its untreated surface – thanks to innumerable processes of grinding having become ‘polished‘ - provides them unexpected elegance. Hand-made from solid wood trunk – of maple, ash and oak or tulip tree, approx. 45 and 50 cm in height, not varnished, exclusively ground and polished.
