Déjà déjà vu

No, you're not seeing triple. I know you've already seen two other set of these on my blog, but we found our third pair of Ib Kofod-Larsen Easy Chairs.

For some reason, we seem to be Kofod-Larsen chair magnets. We may subconsciously seek them out because we're so crazy about them. Or it may be that our love for the design is so strong it draws them to us. Whatever the reason, we're quickly becoming the go-to store if you're looking for them. The other two sold as soon as we put them on the floor, so if things run true to form, these will be snapped up in no time.

When we found them, someone had upholstered the gorgeous seats...and backs...in a nondescript pale green. To me, the backs are what make these chairs stand out, and to cover them with fabric was a sacrilege. We had them restored and refinished in a dark ebony stain, and now they're stunning again. The fabric we used for the seats is a favorite of ours that we used on the first pair we sold. It's a nice neutral tan shot with black threads and just a bit of brick red and moss green. Its nubby texture works well with the smooth back and iron legs.

The fabric we used (from Jo-Ann's)

Here are the other two sets we've sold. One of these days, I'm going to keep a pair for myself. I love, love, love these chairs, not just for their looks, but also because they're incredibly, ergonomically comfortable.
