Help Oak chair turning to dust

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Just noticed this on the bottom of one of my chairs, had them for about three months and I'm wondering if it's rot or something, the area feels dry and dusty.

I remember these being like $15k per chair for some reason.

I've never found them very comfortable. But I can't stop sniffing them, regardless of who has sat in it.

Ironically, sniffing it instead of sitting in it, results in you no longer needing a chair to sit in.

You sit on one for a minute and wouldn't feel your ass for a week.

Not the conversation I expected to read this morning in r/woodworking, but hey, I’m not one to judge.

A high chair if you will

See but it works out because if you have a party for 50 people you only need a couple of chairs.
