More chair business
Friday, March 4, 2011 at 03:54PM Sheesh, you would think that I have a one track brain and it's all about chairs. Today I was checking in on fabric options for the wonderfully kooky vintage pair below, scored by my client/friend Marija who obviously has a really great eye. Of course we had to buy them, since they were so darned cool (as well as amazingly well-priced), but it's taken us (as in me) a while to get the fabric options together. We'll be simplifying the design a fair bit - no tufting - and I would love to see if the refinisher can hack off that little glued on moulding detail before they're re-sprayed (probably in a cream or soft grey). The first fabric pic shows a few samples from the racks at DFO, the second is a slightly more luxe collection of possibilities found at Kravet in Designer's Walk. Do you have a fave? Currently the random Greek Key-ish pattern in the middle of the first snapshot is the front runner, though that herringbone from Thom Filicia could be very handsome.

I really like the fabric by Calvin Klein in the second shot. I love the chairs, are they comfortable?
Oh shit. I love those chairs. Will you keep all that intense tufting on the backs when you reupholster? Looks like a heck of a lot of work.
Your house project looks almost exactly like our old house. So many of that house style in Toronto!
