The Saigon Collection - coming soon

November tipped me over the 9 year point here in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam otherwise known affectionately as Saigon. So it seemed fitting that I was commissioned to design a range that would become a part of the Saigon Collection.

As a taster of what's to come, here is a line up of Dong Son chairs which are my take on a hanging lamp chair (lamps would be hung from the back rail)- the pierced 12 point star echoes the silhouette of the centre of the ancient bronze age Dong Son Drums (1000 BC - 1 BC) that have been dug up from top to bottom of the country in various spots, this seemed a fitting motif to detail and champion these chairs which are shown here in the Buddhist flag colours.

Enjoy.
