Cinderella’s Chair
February 16th, 2010“Cinderella’s Chair” by Anna Ter Haar is a collection of chairs with prostheses made of glass. Each prothesis was blown onto the chair to make fit perfectly. Glass however, is a very fragile material but the legs of glass are strong enough to carry weight.

Strongly reminds me of a first year architecture project (not by me, can’t find online) where one chair leg was shortened by a few inches, and replaced by a (lit) light bulb. Not a chair to be sat upon.

Saw this on the Dezeen web site where it seemed positively hated by the readers.

“strong enough to carry weight.” Probably the weight of the chair. But if someone sits on that, it’s surely gonna break. Looks sturdy though, to give it credit…
