Filippo Ferratti Bed of Nails Chair: "Sit If You Dare"
A Louis XVI armchair historically designed for ease, leisure, and privilege, reimagined as an object of resistance. Upholstered in rich blue velvet and punctured with hundreds of metal pins, this piece transforms comfort into confrontation.
It appears inviting. It is not.
This chair examines the tension between desire and restraint, beauty and consequence, power and vulnerability.
“For those who understand that the most powerful objects do not invite - they challenge.”
