Emphasized.....
Both sets are "original pairs" and look good displayed together for sure which is how my sets live, side by side. I didn't intend to be a smart ass......so no malice intended! I'd post pictures but have trouble pulling that off on this site. It would be nice if you could just compress a picture and post it without bothering with the bs of posting it to another site. I enjoy this forum and would like to share some of my treasures here but alas I'm tech challenged sometimes!
Well, as mother used to say..
a smart ass is oh so much better than a dumb ass. I like all of your shells.
just a thought.

ps (edit) your shells/chairs are absolutely lovely. You and chairs are quite lucky to appreciate each other. I have no issues with the mis-match.
OK Modman,
I am sure they are a good match.
I was being weird. Sorry. You didn't say anything that could be construed as malice at all.
I have a bunch of chairs because... well, just because, and out of about 35 shells, accumulated over 25 years, I make about six or seven decently matched pairs, just based on looks, from various chairs found far and wide. I like to rotate them in the special PAIR spot of honor in my living room. And every few months I break out another pair.
But then there are also 4 "authentic" pairs, that have been pairs all of their lives (perhaps like yours) But of those, only two are perfect matches.
I have a couple of sets that have to be lifetime pairs, but have aged differently, or never were perfect matches to begin with. But just knowing that they were paired originally has its own meaning too, and sometimes its not a matter of how they look, but more a matter of the story implied by the mis- match.
Anyway, probably more than you needed to know about my personal um "problems". LOL Think what i would be like after THREE beers.
I have the same issues with posting photos on here as you do. Big pain in the ass. I dont know how mark does it with all the snappies.
Mark
I am trying to figure out which chairs, real or imagined, you are referring to!
Did i miss something? Did i miss everything?
Were there some other chair photos posted before? OR are you talking about my old "Eames Buffet" photo?
I cant keep up with you. But that is not unusual.
