The name of this piece of furniture refers to the most dangerous substance on the planet. During the cleanup of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant disaster, a mass of molten nuclear fuel was discovered in a room beneath the reactor. It had melted the concrete, glass, and asphalt around it. As it flowed outward, it resembled an elephant’s foot, which is how it received its name. At the time, being near it for just 200 seconds meant receiving a lethal dose of radiation. The mass is still burning today and will continue to burn for several more centuries. This chair is named after the Chernobyl Elephant’s Foot due to its visual resemblance. It is also a kind of “alloy”: a thin wire frame is layered with clothing and bonded together, forming a strong and heavy piece of furniture capable of withstanding high loads. 2024
