Vocu Chairs
Limited upcycled chairs series
I am a 1950s and 1960s furniture lover and collector. One of my favourite pieces of furniture are chairs. Not many chairs from this era have been preserved, which makes every new find a little treasure. I’ve decided to use my creativity and to give these design gems a new life. My mission is to preserve the essence of the era of their creation and to make them a part of today’s world. The result of my efforts is the Vocu Chairs collection…
I give new breath to discarded gems
I usually find the chairs in old furniture shops and at auctions. Every one of our renovated chairs receives special care. Each of them is reupholstered by a skilful upholsterer and restored. Sometimes it is the construction that requires mending, sometimes it is the backrest or the seat. The result is a functional and environmentally friendly product with a potential to serve its owner for decades.
Original hand-printed patterns
The chairs are decorated with a unique combination of patterns. I work with natural recycled canvas which I hand-paint and print with eco-friendly paints. Making patterns and combining them is a creative process I really enjoy. Thanks to the handprint, each piece is an original with a unique style.
Handcrafted to the finest detail
I restore chairs in collaboration with experienced craftsmen who spend dozens of hours working with chairs. Only top-quality materials are used for the renewal. The chairs attract attention with their design as well as the finest detail work.
I want each chair to get all care it needs and to achieve the best possible craftsmanship. That’s why they are produced only in small limited series.
“In the creative process I try to find harmony between love to old things and the demands of the modern age. I want to turn discarded objects into repurposed pieces and to bring back their beauty. I love to see my clients discover the journey the chairs have taken.”
