Mint News

Maarten Baas is back!

This week mint is featuring five 19th century chairs re-designed by Maarten Baas and specially commissioned by Lina Kanafani. The Smoke effect was achieved by burning the surfaces of each chair and then preserving them in a clear epoxy coating. Each chair is unique and exclusive to mint.

Here are a few words from the designer: “Clay furniture is made of synthetic Clay, with a metal “skeleton” inside to reinforce the structure. All pieces are modelled by hand. No moulds are used in the production, making each piece unique”.
