Plywood Lounge Chairs

Did I mention we got some new chairs? I've loved the Eames Molded Plywood Lounge Chairs for quite sometime but never thought I'd own any. We've been looking at adding a chair to the living room so we can have a more circular seating arrangement. Circular helps with conversation. (It's a little odd when three people have to sit on the couch and the fourth sits across from them.)

While in Palm Springs earlier this summer, we stopped by the Design Within Reach clearance center. I'm sure they have a much fancier name for it, but I can't remember. Chris had seen a couple chairs he thought I might like. Unfortunately, I didn't. But I saw a couple of the Eames plywood dining chairs and I said, "You know what I'd really like..." And Chris knew immediately I was talking about the lounge chairs. He said, "Like the ones over there?" and pointed to a set. I almost jumped up and down with joy when I saw the price tag. Even better, we got them to come down a little bit more. (Remember, everything is negotiable.)

I'm sure the sales guy thought we were nuts as we wrangled our new chairs into the backseat of the Civic. But we got them home! And I love, love, love them. So stylish and yet so comfortable too. You should come over and sit in them. I look forward to the conversation.
