wish list

it seems that i have a slight obsession with chairs lately. if i had the amount of rooms necessary to house these occasional chairs i think i would open up a new credit card just to buy them.
here are a few which refuse to leave my mind:
the louis xv french arm chair

or this beautiful cained version

i also like the idea of upholstering them with a bold patterned fabric

the rounded, straight legged louis xvi chairs are a little less formal (in my opinion) and equally as beautiful

i could see them nestled around my dining room table

pictures via
this modern 'ghost' version is pretty cool too

i am also in love with the george iii faux bamboo chair

and, of course all of these lovely chairs would have to receive the one of a kind finish only Martin Painting Corporation could provide.
you see, i am obsessed.

  1. I really like that top one. I love chairs too, although funny enough, I don't really like sitting in them (I think they're usually uncomfy; I like the couch or the floor). I've never been into modern decor at all, but I love the older looking chairs!

  4. Hi! New here and I hope you're having a great weekend so far!

    This is a great collection of charming chairs you'll keep for life. I do like the modern one but I'll be more inclined to buy one with the striped fabric or giant flower silhouettes. Either way, you can't go wrong!
