Have You Ever

Pined after a piece of furniture that
has no business being in your home?

Would not fit right in any room?

Or work in any way?

Just because, 
it was so utterly
and completely over the top
cool.

have you?

Absolutely! Like the sofa upholstered in fabric that looks like children scribbled all over it!!! Can you imagine? But there is something so perfect and organic about it...
I love you pick here!

Debra said...

I thought that settee was pretty fly, too, and you know it's miles away from my personal style.

Yes yes and yes! I recently brought a set of chairs home from my grandmother's home (she gave them to me, I didn't sneak them). I have admired them for years but they desperately need an upholstery job. And, just as you said, they have no place in my home. So what to do--spend the money or store them until they might someday belong? In any case, I think that settee is darling.

This settee completely takes my breath away...from the moment I saw in on the cover of New York Magazine Over a year ago. Then, I had NO- idea it was made my Anthro. I walked in a store & literally had to gain composure. I was so excited bc I thought it was a 20 thousand dollar custom piece! Currently I'm considering having my seamstress recreate the fabric & upholstering a settee I already have. One way or another i'll have this settee!! :) -Lauren
