The Woodbender Scoop 33 Chair is a contemporary bentwood design that celebrates the artistry and innovation of traditional steam-bending craftsmanship. Recently recognised at Clerkenwell Design Week Awards 2026 with the Best of Clerkenwell + Best Craftsmanship award, Scoop 33 showcases Woodbender’s mastery of hand-bent timber furniture design.
Handcrafted in South Africa from sustainably sourced ash timber, the chair features a flowing sculptural frame, ergonomically designed backrest, and upholstered seat pad that combine visual lightness with exceptional comfort. Its name references the thirty-three precision bends required to achieve the final form – the result of an intensive process of refining jigs, timing, and bending sequences to push the possibilities of steam-bent timber design.
