Seriously fun
Thursday, July 22, 2010 at 11:26AM Saw this chair a couple of secs ago on Twitter and thought how great it was, and now here I go sharing it with you lot. It's a fantastically quirky Victorian club chair (love the turned black legs and casters) that's been upholstered in a metallic silver print on a dark purple Irish linen called D'ya-think-e-sauras, from PaperBoy in the UK. Victoria Cramsie of PaperBoy scored the chair at an auction, one of a pair, she's now itching to get the other one re-upholstered too. Check her firm out for lots of seriously fun prints on fabric and wallpaper - you should really take a look at Animal Magic and Hand Made - that are nice and un-sugary, and a v. sophisticated take on designs for kids. Oh, and thanks to Victoria (aka PaperBoyLondon) for posting the shots on TwitPic!

I want this chair! I got a sample of the fabric and it matches my daughters purple dinosaur bedroom exactly. She is turning 18 and I'd like to give her this special chair as her gift. Where did you find the chair? I like the back, because it's smooth and shows this wonderful fabric pattern. If you can help, I would appreciate it.
