Loving These Chairs!

I have a thing for beautifully crafted chairs. Doesn’t matter what era.  If it’s got style, I’m smitten.  So as you can imagine, it was love at first sight when I came across these George Nakashima grass chairs. At $4800 for 2, I doubt they’ll be in my home any time soon so I’m gonna have to swoon from afar.  Howz about a blog challenge? Let’s see who could find these chairs on Craigslist first! Who’s with me? Seriously, I sigh every time I look at these Dufner Heighes images, especially the last one.   An eclectic look never looked so stylish. Sigh…..

    I have to say, I love these chairs too. Gorgeous!

  2. Wow, these really are gorgeous! Let’s hope there is someone out there who has no idea what a treasure they have and will let them go for a much lower price.
