Rivet Chair

The Rivet Chair is defined by smooth aluminum planes and geometrical lines - a symbiosis between craftsmanship and industrial production. Based on a riveting technique suitable for making perpendicular joints between separate, laser-cut raw aluminum sheets, the chair is put together by hand using a hammer in a cold-forming assembly process developed by designer Jonas Trampedach in 2011.

Notes
Each piece is unique and hammered by hand.
Scratches and irregularities may be present, a characteristic of unfinished aluminum.
The material will patinate over time, and marks and tinted materiality will occur.
Suitable for indoor and outdoor use. Placed outdoors it develops a patina but will not rust or deteriorate.

Care
Wipe with a soft cloth wrung out in clean water, or a mild soap.
Avoid cleaners containing any type of chemicals.
Dry with a soft cloth after cleaning to prevent streaks and scratches.
Remove traces of cleaner from edges and rivets. Wet items left on the surface will mark it.

Designer Jonas Trampedach is a Copenhagen designer who developed the aluminium riveting technique behind the Rivet series at Statens Vaerksteder for Kunst in 2011, working out how to join sheet metal at ninety degrees without welding. Frama has produced pieces from the collection since 2016. Each one is laser-cut from raw aluminium and closed by hand with a hammer, so no two are identical. Brand

Frama is a Copenhagen design studio creating furniture, lighting, and everyday objects guided by natural materials, simple geometries, and permanence. Founded by Niels Strøyer Christophersen, the studio works from St. Pauls Apotek, a preserved 1878 apothecary in central Copenhagen, and its collections span the modular Shelf Library, seating, lighting, and an apothecary line of soaps and scents. Each piece is designed to age with use and keep its character over time.
