Chinoiserie Twins



Chinoiserie is so BIG right now! I'm not usually a bandwagon-jump-on-er so I've resisted the urge to buy a few pieces just because "they're in style"... Then I saw these two on craigslist for a price I couldn't pass up.


 I've always liked this silhouette for armchairs. Not sure what it's called, but I like the straight lines and scooped sides.

I wasn't digging the whole "Tommy Bahama wannabe" look, plus this finish was chipping off in a few areas (and not in a cool way). That was easily fixed with some black paint and fun upholstery.




What do you think now? It's a good thing I don't have any black in my house or I would be tempted to keep the pair.
