Paper Basket PP40

The top ring is particularly interesting as the original drawing for the Paper Basket shows a laminated circular construction. A principle similar to that used more than forty years later in the production of the Circle Chair. 

Our current production of the ring is based on the pre-compression technique, where a piece of steamed wood is compressed about 20% in length causing the wood fibres to be flexible enough for a full solid piece to bend into a ring. The ends meet in a near tangential joint.
