Lucas Castex builds on his collection of wooden wonders with this only-at-ABASK stool, designed for our first physical and international event at Salon Art + Design 2023 in NYC. On each layer, you’ll find intricate patterns hand carved by the self-taught maker, who has a range of blades in his Les Landes studio that he loves to experiment with. To achieve its striking black finish, Castex torches the wood with fire – a technique that brings out its natural character and shade.
