I've been looking for chairs like that, to no avail, although I have found them new on a UK website (and they're not cheap). I can't believe you never pay more than $20 for them! I agree with you -- they are the perfect chairs for summer...for backyard reading, for the beach, for impromptu teas on the lawn... so old school cool. I am waiting with bated breath to see them when they're finished...I may have to come and check them out in person some day! :) xxLisa Borgnes Giramontihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08708026781435832810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8044541580633294348.post-58462568468694689672010-07-27T22:07:17.371-04:002010-07-27T22:07:17.371-04:00Those chairs bring back fond memories of my summer...Those chairs bring back fond memories of my summers at the shore where my family used them too. If there are readers in similar situations in the NYC area they should check out "Les Toiles du Soleil" a wonderful shop on west 19th St. with summery striped fabrics in both cotton and sunbrella fabrics. They also have espadrilles and beach bags in those striped fabrics. I love your blog and am jealous of your peach china.Edwardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07981598756846509338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8044541580633294348.post-30731040535609008182010-07-26T22:11:15.859-04:002010-07-26T22:11:15.859-04:00I love you for this.
