re-trouve 565


i have a serious case of chair-envy: these gorgeous wire chairs from patricia urquiola (she can do no wrong these days in my book) for emu would be absolutely perfect for a walk-in dressing room or powder room. i’d love to snag one of the blue chairs with it’s soft polka-dotted fabric…

I love the red! It just pops out at me.

Because these were designed to be outdoor chairs I hadn’t even considered the notion of having one indoors (duh me) but now that you mention it, I’m seeing them in a whole new light!

Love the green & blue one at center. They look like they’d make awesome garden seating.

Gotta have one of these- where can I buy?

What a fabulous find! How fabulous would the yellow be in a great shade garden??

Blue and green should definitely be seen! Actually, it would nice to combine several different ones… By the way: “chair-envy” is such a great word =D English is not my first language so I’m wondering whether this word is becoming an expression or if it’s an one-off made by you just now?

If only we were still able to keep our roof deck! These would have been absolutely perfect!

Anyone know where one can purchase these? I did a google search, but no stockists coming up. Thanks!

they’re distributed by emu- if you follow the link above you can contact them. just a warning: i’m sure they’re at least 5 times my monthly rent ;)

yes my immediate thought was outdoor seating as well, but i’m sure my cat would immediately claim it for herself! the cushion with the back to it screams kitty magnet!

These make me crave a screened-in-porch even more!

I ADORE these chairs! They remind me also of the peacock chair which i’ve always liked. Loving everything single little scrap of this fantabulous D*S website :)

I am in love!

I love, love, love these chairs!! I agree with Biba they remind of Mortisha Adams peacock chair on the old Adams Family TV show.

If you love the look but can’t afford the price tag….Anthropologie has a similar chair on clearance right now….I posted it here:

I love the white dotted fabric on the cushions. Does anyone know where to buy a similar fabric, suitable for outdoors? I’d like to make my own cushions as $100 each is a bit out of my price range!
