Korean designer Kwangho Lee (b.1981) has crafted a unique piece of modern furniture that blends together traditional and contemporary design.
His ‘New Armor’ collection is an example of his skillful fusion of traditional ott-chill lacquer technique with modern materials. The objects are made of bronze and coated with paper and ott-chill lacquer, creating a high gloss finish that brings out the texture of the pattern.
This exquisite piece is not only a work of art but a representation of Kwangho Lee’s efforts at preserving traditional Asian craftsmanship.
