New (Old) Saarinen Chair

Trip and I went to a local antique store a few months back, and I spotted this awesome vintage Saarinen Executive Arm Chair. It needed some seriously love (new fabric, obviously, new seat cushion, new feet), but I just couldn't pass it up. 

After months of trying to find the right fabric (yes months...Trip would've picked a bright purple chair at that point, he didn't care!), I finally found one we both liked that was semi-reasonable in price. We found authentic chrome feet for the chair, and got it reupholstered. It's now STUNNING, and such as great showpiece in our living room. 

Here is the before:

And here the after:

What a difference!
