concrete chair

I would say it qualifies. I really like it. How did you shape the seat?

-- Check out my new website! http://www.blakeweberwoodworking.com

carved the seat and back with lancelot chain and various sanding discs

I agree. It definitely qualifies and is very interesting. What wood did you use? Did you make the mold and pour the concrete? Great job

yes I made the mold of melamin boards or how do you call those boards for kitchens..

Very good hrvoje
I really enjoy your style.
Did you put re- bar in the concrete? Or did you make up a metal frame to support from inside?

stunning!! my favourite two mediums! concrete and wood work so well together!
have something very similar in the works

i agree, its a great combination…makes the concrete a lot “warmer” and “friendlier” as well!
next is a bench and then table i’m guessing, ;-)

Did you seal the wood with spar varnish or what? I’d like to see the concrete get a little artistic paint to make it look like it was always that way. Rolled rag method with swipes using a complementary stain. Maybe mahogany, or more walnut but in a darker shade. Otherwise, great artistic and clever design and build. Good job.

noup no spar varnish Brad…I use a mix of linseed oil,tung oil and beeswax… I wanted to experiment on how will the wood react on sun and rain,cold..

The concrete looks almost like marble, did you plan that effect? Also, How did you afix the wood to the cement?
Beautiful Job. An epoxy finish on the wood will make it last forever. Just read an article in FWW Mag about it. You can buy dyes to go in cement to color it any color you want.
