Sometimes I find it so hard to let go of the lovely things I have at the shop. Today this chair and it's partner {there were a pair of them} left to head down to a beautiful client of mine in Melbourne. The fabric I used to cover the chairs in is so fun but it is now discontinued and never to be repeated again. Luckily I have this fabric on a piece at home too but I just had to post this picture so that I can look back and remember them. You probably think I'm a bit mad but this blog is about keeping a record of things I've done over the years so now I'll never forget these pretty chairs!!
Oh and just in case anyone is as crazy about that fabric as I am, we have 2 cushions made in it in the shop...we had 4 but 2 have already gone so that leaves 2 for some lucky person!!xx
Those flowers look very Peter Max...pretty and fun chair!

Your chair is STUNNING, I can see why it was hard to say good bye!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a glorious chair!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's so gorgeous! It's like a little bit classic, a little bit pop art, with some graphic botanical prints and modernity thrown all together. Definitely never seen anything like it which, while depressing, is also what makes me love it, if that makes sense...
ReplyDeleteI don't know how you do it - I'd be way too attached to let go, and never make any money!
ReplyDeletePerhaps think of it this way - the chair, and other pieces, carry a little bit of each person who's hands they've passed through...
Absolutely gorgeous!!!!! my congratulations on your amasing work!.
ReplyDeleteRegards from Madrid.
Love the fabric! What sizes are the cushions and how much? I am in the US don't know if it would be a problem to ship.
ReplyDeleteOh Anna, these are lovely! Your client is so lucky. I love that you have a record of them and all the beautiful things you do for Black & Spiro - and that we get to see them to!
ReplyDeleteThe fabric is gorgeous- what a heck of a crazy idea to discontinue it ..!!
ReplyDeleteI want.. i mean need those chairs! I think it is the most gorgeous thing I've seen in a long time! I'm in Canada though... :(
ReplyDeleteoh, how pretty! i have a girlfriend who holds a "brocante" in a little town in France. the other day she had two lovely chairs but with a very old fabric on them. inspired by your blog I could quite see them with a beautiful fabric like this one! what a pitty I didn't have the money to buy them there and then - unfortunately they've sold allready... oh well, la prochaine fois!
ReplyDeleteI like how the color of the chair is not a dead ringer for the hot colors in the fabric, but still looks nice together. Thanks for the nice photo. It's tough for an amature like me to visualize how to put together the brights with neutrals of wood, and so on, without matching.
ReplyDeleteLOVE that fabric too! Lucky client to get those chairs.
ReplyDeleteNow that! That is one fabulous chair. Yes em....
ReplyDeleteThat fabric is amazing! It's like modern take on a vintage print.

Oh, what a beautifully upholstered chair, so fresh and delightful! I love pansies, at least on such fun fabric.
ReplyDeletexoxo V.

ReplyDeleteomg i love these chairs...i want them lol, totally loving your blog x
ReplyDeleteThat fabric fabric is so 'Yellow Submarine'!
ReplyDeletei'm salivating over those colors! gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteNo, I don't think you're mad at all. The main reason I started my blog was to record all my projects and when I feel under pressure to post more often or whatever, I just come back to my original purpose.
ReplyDeleteThat fabric is just so unique and it looks great on that particular chair.

What a lovely print, I would have a hard time letting them go.
ReplyDeleteSuch nice vivid color! Pretty pattern too!
ReplyDeleteI love that Missoni fabric 9million/10.
ReplyDeleteCan you believe this heat?
Ruinous for the hair.
That chair is unbelievable!! If I had the means (and if it were available) I would have purchased an entire set of those. so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, Anna... it would be hard to look at that chair without smiling. G
ReplyDeleteThis chair is heavenly!
ReplyDeleteI wish I was the client that bought the chairs.
ReplyDeleteThey are really beautiful.
This is stunning. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI love this chair and that fabric is just divine!! How much the cushions going for? :)
ReplyDeletelove this chair! beautiful work...
ReplyDeletereally beautiful chair, well done ! I can imagine that it is a little bite pity when it's gone !
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely stunning Anna - so pretty and so worth keeping indeed!! :))
ReplyDeleteGorgeous chair, I wish it was on the way to my place.
ReplyDeleteIt is so hard to let go of your pretties! :)
ReplyDeleteThe way you pair modern fabrics with traditional chairs is inspiring. This chair makes one look twice (in a good way) and I've always loved the black checked chair (in the background) with the green tulle.
ReplyDeleteBrisbane, Australia is now on my list to visit!
yes gorgeous fabric! I had a look through a few old mags the other day, real living, nov 2008?? was it, and there you were in your home etc.etc. lovely!!! imagine how much your blog would have grown since then!!!
ReplyDeleteI don't remember seeing a fabric so vibrant, with a "high energy" as this one. I can understand why you love them... who wouldn't?
