BOLD Shkam reinterprets the Albanian stool 'Shkam' blending tradition with modern design.
Each chair is a testament to Albanian craftsmanship, reimagined for today’s design-conscious world
Inspired by Albanian Heritage
The Bold Shkam draws inspiration from the Shkam, a traditional stool rooted in Albanian culture. It pays homage to the simplicity and functionality of its predecessor, while integrating modern elements that elevate it into the realm of contemporary furniture.
Shaped as Sculpture
Each chair is sculptural, with distinct forms that create a visually engaging experience. Rounded seats, unique cut-out backrests, and varied leg designs combine to make a functional and artistic object.
Cosutumized Parts
The Bold Shkam’s modular design allows for easy disassembly and reconfiguration. Its components—legs, seats, and backrests—can be mixed and matched to create personalized combinations, adapting to different spaces while reflecting the user’s individual taste.
Eco-Friendly Material
Crafted from layered plywood, Bold Shkam chairs are both stylish and
nvironmentally conscious. The reused wood finish offers warmth, while the vibrant red option provides a striking, modern contrast. This thoughtful use of materials underscores a commitment to sustainability.
