Pretty in pink..with a bit of blue

Spring makes us think of the pastel colours of tulips and flowering shrubs.

I wanted to share with you some pretty pink (and blue) things we have in our store right now…along with Lorraine Beswick’s lovely flowers.

Herman Miller Armshell chairs – pair

In the store now are a fab pair of 1960s Herman Miller Armshell chairs designed by Charles and Ray Eames.

They retain their original upholstery in magenta hopsack by Alexander Girard.

These shells bear the Herman  Miller mark and the “crescent moon” mark of Milacron Milling and Machine Company who produced the fibreglass shells.

Our pair of chairs still have their original plastic foot caps.

They are in excellent vintage condition with just a couple of small tears in the upholstery of one chair at the seam and a few slight stains.

Comfy and simply fabulous!

Herman Miller Armshell chair. $450 each (we have a pair!)

Getting ready to open!

Jane and I have been busy staging the store for our 2015 season opening this coming Saturday, May 23rd at 9 am.

Yoda, however, is not going to wait!

He appeared at the back door yesterday and had a look around. He spotted a great new place to have a nap.

We are happy to see him again and look forward to seeing all of you!
