Say Hello to Jahn

Some people just have it. It is difficult to describe, but you definitely know it when you see it. Maybe it is a certain style, or a confidence that defies explanation. Our latest chair, Jahn, is like one of those people. I mean just look at him. He is wickedly cool. He has definitely got it. He probably sat in on many backroom deals as they were closed with handshakes and highballs... then chased with a Bromo fizz the next morning! Jahn is a cosmopolitan chair with an "it factor" that cannot be denied. Gore Vidal is credited with saying, "style is knowing who you are, what you want to say, and not giving a damn." If you know who you are, and what you want to say, Jahn can help you make that statement. He has it, and he'll bring it to you, while making your place the swingingest thing since Benny Goodman! SOLD!

Those Aren’t Pillows!

Well… in fact, yes, yes they are. They are pillows. They may look like super cool awesome works of art, but they are definitely pillows. I know what you’re thinking. You’re thinking, “Hey, this is a blog about furniture… and life. Why are you writing a story about pillows on a blog about furniture and life?” And here’s your answer. These pillows aren’t ONLY pillows. They are sofa accessories. Think of them as sofa earrings - really cool, one-of-a-kind, fluffy, down-filled, sofa earrings. Like any great pair of earrings, they are the perfect accessory to make your sofa stand out. Sure, your sofa is pretty. Your sofa is probably wearing something beautiful, but without these accessories it just looks unfinished, naked. You know, the holiday season is right around the corner. Why not buy your sofa a cushy pair of sofa earrings?

Émile

Most chairs come to fruition with a solid idea, a stereotype if you will. French Bergère chairs usually have fancy clothes, and expect to live a lavish lifestyle. They don attire fit for a French country estate and don’t often stray from this concept. Bergères LOVE the elegance of living in a chateau…always en granite tenue. Émile loved the French countryside; but he was not satisfied with the status quo. He was conflicted. Though he felt like a nobleman inside, the froufrou fabric that covered his frame was uncomfortable and confining. Émile wanted to travel the world. When this wanderer arrived at our door, he expressed to us that he was trying to “find himself.” He was tired, and his fine clothes were a little worn, but his genteel lineage was still apparent. We told him of our favorite quote from George Bernard Shaw: “Life isn’t about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.” This became his battle cry, and his gaudy fabric was ripped off faster than a “Nigerian prince” can accept a fund transfer. Although Émile has a new rugged exterior, he’s just a big softy inside. Now that he has been recreated, he is ready to settle down with a new family… and some incredibly strong coffee. SOLD!
