A “Bleischwer” bench, designed by Xaver Sedelmeier,
Germany 2022, solid oak, upholstered resting surface covered in lead, signed and dated: xaver 2022, height c. 22 cm, c. 140 x 40 cm. (DRAX)
A unique item.
With certificate.
Xaver Sedelmeier uses fenders and protective materials in a new context, refining them through repurposing. This turns furniture into fetish-like ritual objects shrouded in an aura of untouchability, which prevents us from using them according to their original purpose. Their function no longer plays a role - their presence is a sovereign right.
