LIBELULA COLLECTION

Libelula has become a bit of a design Classic, first produced by Rafemar before being reedited and produced in 2018 by Verges. The chair was one of the first examples of bent tube legs in Spanish chair design. The collection as its name suggests is inspired by the DragonFly. There’s something in the story of this amazing insect that speaks to me about transformation, becoming, dark to light. It spends most of its life at the bottom of a muddy pond, before bursting into the light with strong, fast, beautiful wings. Above photos are part of a story sequence by fashion photographer Jo kemp where the girl grows wings. The collection comprises of a large dining table and chairs, smaller square bar tables, high bar table and stool, lounge chairs and low tables. (Available directly from Claire Davies Design). Iconic restaurants with the libelula are celebrity cheff Jordi Cruz at his Tens Restaurant in Barcelona and the DJ David Guetta for his Fuck Me I’m Famous disco in Ibiza Airport
