Another Chair Love
This week’s chair love is a bit unusual. And very overpriced. Yves Saint Laurent’s art collect was auctioned off this week. This chair from the personal collection sold for $28 million!
The chair is called the ‘Dragons’ armchair and is from 1917-1919. For more information about the history of this amazing chair/piece of art check out the Christie’s website link above.
Gorgeous is all I can say. What do you think?
Current Chair Love
This weeks chair love:
This guy is so ugly that its cute. I think if it were reupholstered in a fun modern material, the shape could be really fun a a living room or even as a side seat in a large bedroom. Maybe do away with the squiggly stitching?
This seat was found on Ebay and is described as a vintage retro mid century circle chair, love seat, or sofa.
I think it has strange potential…
New Chair Love
This week I have been a little sick, making me a little absent, but I am pining for a new chair. I had to share it with you. Its the Marais AC chair from DWR. Industrial. Colorful. Perfection!

Here is it in red:
I think these are just gorgeous! I would love either color. Or silver metal…
Oh, the possibilities!
More Chair Love
This weeks chair love: a recent find of Apartment Therapy reader Alex. Alex found this chair and is now asking the Apartment Therapy readers to help him identify it. Some of the readers think it might be a Gastone Rinaldi chair from the 70’s, worth quite a but of money if it is genuine. To me, money or no, it is really cute. I think it could be even cuter with some new funky fabric or leather cushions (which is what Alex is thinking about doing).
If you know anything more about the chair or it’s style, check out the post and let Alex know the scoop. Otherwise, if you are like me, just sit there and drool away.
