Thank you.  *What do you get instead of riempiestoele?  You only get lies and pain and sorrow  So for at least until tomorrow  I’ll never weave a seat again.*  With apologies to Hal David and Burt Bacharach

I can imagine 😄 Must've been a mission of serious note ... Well done!

Riempies are rawhide strips.  This traditional South African design of a woven net/lattice seat was originally developed to meet the needs of pioneer farmers.  Chairs needed to be lightweight, durable and field-maintainable for long journeys in ox wagons.

The needs of these "trek-boere" (travelling farmers) were far from unique, so I'm surprised that I haven't found reference to similar designs from other parts of the world.  If anyone knows of an equivalent design, I'd appreciate the pointer.

A beautifully crafted dining room scene featuring traditional riempie chairs with intricate yellowwood frames and woven rawhide leather seats, set against a warm, golden backdrop reminiscent of African craftsmanship and impressionist art.

Thanks ! A kind of retrofuturism of eighties SF, and looking at it, i see something like Formula1, not the cars but the helmet. Maybe the colors... ;)
