Serpentine Armchair by Éléonore Nalet _MG_1316

Last year I showed you Éléonore Nalet‘s Serpentine chair as part of the IMM young designers exhibition.

This year Ligne Roset took the Serpentine in production and showed it at its IMM Cologne booth.

I show the visitor in the second photo to give you an idea of the chair’s size, as it is not so big.

Twisted Roots Chair

I discovered this chair at tongue in cheek site Anthroparodie that claims:

Distressed Chair with 3 Branches Nailed to It
gnarled writhing branches cling to this classic dining room chair
like an anguished lover

our latest sit-art represents a bold and highly experimental fusion of timbered forces
natural wood
processed wood
together!

$980

And then points you to the USA based reseller of this chair

Anthroparodie’s byline is: Bohemia just got a lot more expensive…

At Anthroparodie, we provide the elite and fashionably adventurous dreamers and artists with an illusion of a Bohemian lifestyle, while still promoting bourgeois decadence. Offering found vintage items that we design ourselves (and assemble in sultry third-world locales) our 153+ retail shops are a one-of-a-kind boutique.

To purchase our floaty, flouncy, owlish, new-antique, hand-made, twee apparel and trinketry, click on the product name, which links to our online marketplace

I wonder what our friends over at Moggit would comment…

Another interpretation like The Chair grew from the Tree…, Grown into a Chair and Twisted Branch Chair..
