Unknown Furniture presents unique furniture made of lava. The award-winning designer Raimonds Cirulis is the inventor of the furniture in the [BLACK] series and the first in the world to work with lava in furniture design. The world of lava furniture is exiting and new. The flexibility and unique qualities of the material knows no bounds for creating innovative designs. The [BLACK] series presents furniture in different sizes and shapes. However, they all have one thing in common: they are unique and never indifferent. The lava is also known as volcanic basalt - by many known as the “green industrial material of the 21st century”. The basalt stones are found in the crust of the Earth. The stones are heated to 1450 degrees Celsius and the liquid mass is pressed through nozzles to produce long fibers. With these fibers each furniture is shaped by hand.

Extraordinary qualities

The furniture in the [BLACK] series finds the perfect combination of material, aesthetic and functionality. Due to the material the furniture has extraordinary properties:

• Light weight and remarkable strength

• Sound absorbing.

• Resistant to salt and chlorine.
