toss-up between two
I would like either eight rosewood NO Møller dining chairs to go with my rosewood table and buffet, OR an Eames lounge chair & ottoman.
I have nice rosewood chairs but they are not as well-designed as the Møller ones and tend to get wobbly. As for the lounge chair, I am now about to reupholster my second Selig/Plycraft knockoff and would just like the real thing someday.
ps- don't give up hope, I've gotten a bunch of Kay Bojesen monkeys, elephants and soldiers at auction for just a few bucks each! They're out there...
yep
Yep, i agree wholeheartedly. I do not think anybody will argue your point. However, somehow I do like the combination of both threads. They are, in my mind, a bit like opposing poles of a same dimension: What would you most like to add ? versus What would you least like to detract ?
More specifically, I like the contrast these threads have to offer. For me, it is humbling that I lust after a lamp that I can not afford, but actually when asked, parting with my lamps was not the first thing that came to mind. I like that the one thread is really a What would you buy when you would win the Lottery sort of collection, while the other focuses on domestic bliss (well, ok, it is too early to tell yet, but I think/ sort of hope it will) sort of thread. Which clearly heads towards the very practical/ pragmatic oriented, whereas the other thread is not (rather totally impractical dreamworld). So I like this thread, AND I like the other thread. Bringing the older thread back up, is by no means meant as a comment on the new thread: I just like them together, that is all.
It changes ........
A year ago it would probably have been a Finn Juhl Chieftans chair, but now I would probably prefer a cheaper, more utilitarian Ernest Race antelope chair.
But then again, I'm about to move from a fairly grand space to a more
industrial austere space.
I guess what I'm saying is, it depends on my surroundings and mood..
It is in flux.
