my favorite post of 2013 so far...
"All the Way Over Here...
Little did I know what I was getting into when I asked Google about the infamous Mahogany Association yesterday. I discovered the bunch of you lunatics entertaining a small segment of the universe, keeping people entertained and out of war situations, etc., and I simply could not resist joining in. Little did I dream what worlds would open to me upon the acquisition of too well-used (#155) end tables! Yes, even way over here, on the Big Island of Hawaii, I managed to find... drumroll... The Mahogany Association. After years of mulling over what serene Japanese character I would most like tattooed on my wrist, it is obvious I will have to go with a reproduction of the sticker that rocked the world. Can you imagine what incredible joy it would bring to another person on this blog to come across me and my tattoo one day as they happily vacationed in Hawaii???? Just the chance of seeing Brent's face in our little shop in our little town as his eyes settled on my wrist is worth any expense, any shame or any blood infection I might have to endure. I'm saving my allowance for it, starting RIGHT NOW!
Thanks Everyone, and aloha!

Eames Bling?
Did Vitra really make this, or do they mean Vitra made it originally before it received "the Treatment"?

Ha! spanky,
your post reminded me of a recent trip to Barcelona.
We stayed in a nice hotel but there were at least a dozen of these lumbering about in the lobby.

vintagestique,
you may be right, but the Vittorio Varo chair isn't exactly a looker either...

Maybe it was from a contest
that Herman Miller had, one where five gold RARs were sent out randomly with orders and the five lucky people to get them were invited to be the first people ever to tour the super secret Herman Miller factory?
