Unprint Magazine, the End Arm Chair with Leia Sfez
The End Arm Chair runs full page in Unprint Magazine Volume 4, opening an object portfolio inside an interview with Leia Sfez of The Oblist.
Unprint Magazine opens Leia Sfez, conteuse d'art, an interview feature running from page 142 to page 160 of Volume 4, with a full page photograph of the End Arm Chair. The margin credit reads Chaise GOONS, with a Leon Spigel decorative plate on the facing page.
The feature profiles Leia Sfez as curator and co-founder of The Oblist, the online art and design platform she launched in 2023 with Gary Sfez, its name a contraction of liste d'objets. She describes it as a non-elitist gallery built on knowing the history behind each piece, who made it, how, from what, and over how many hours. Around four hundred names are represented.
The chair opens a portfolio of objects photographed for the feature. Among them are silverware and a teapot by Natalia Criado, a candlestick and a copper vase by Bottega Jacobs, glasses by Augustina Ros with Pia Glasswork, floor lamps by Violaine d'Harcourt and by Hauvette & Madani, an ashtray by Justine Menard, a teapot by Boga Avante, an obsidian lamp by Homa, a bedside lamp and the decorative plate by Leon Spigel, a clam shell by Medicine, and a vase and bowl from Dodo Vintage.
