for the love of chairs

i love the design of chairs and i am looking for new dining chairs but i also love lounge and chill chairs. i am particularly drawn to 50s/60s chairs. if it were up to me, all of these would be in my house...

The wooden based eiffel is really nice. I have a knock-off which I quite like.

there are ones on overstock that are knock offs but the reviews are terrible when it comes to quality and putting them together. did you have any issues?

i have a replica eames lounger that my wife found at an estate sale. we got it for $20 and it is in great shape and is real leather.

I don't remember where I got these. I think I paid $120 for two chairs, and sold one on craigslist for $80. The bases were easy to put together and are really stable, not wobbly, etc. It was just important to leave everything loose, weight the chair, then tighten a bit. They are obviously made of plastic rather than fiberglass; though that doesn't bother me!

The bases are just so pretty!

I made my own stools out of big logs that I put in my room... had four of them, so when (if ever) people did come visit everyone could gather round sitting on logs

my dad has one of these

it's very comfortable but he has it more as an antique so it's almost never used

i sense a missing of bean bag chairs inside this thread

my friend used to have one of these

great for posture

a few guys at work have these

I put together a new bike last weekend, so now I have a broken frame that isn't being used for anything. I'm thinking of cutting it and making it into a stool.

Or just hanging it on my wall.

a seating solution nonetheless

 

do they wear crocs?

My mum got us one of those posture chairs when I started to become an Internet Enthusiast. Not a chair. Everyone always ends up sitting on it with their feet on the knee rests and with the most curved spine ever

i thought they were specifically for knitting (with a knitting machine), maybe that's how they were originally marketed or something

i have some sweet chairs. i'd take a pic but i'm lazy.

I love chairs like this:
