So here is the first piece that's made it from our warehouse to the floor of the store.
50th Anniversary Commemorative Eames lounge chair and ottoman |
Commemorative medallion |
The 50th Anniversary Special Edition was issued by Herman Miller in 2006 and featured a medallion affixed to the bottom. The commemorative set came in santos palisander, cherry, natural cherry and walnut, with die-cast aluminum back braces and base, 6-inch cushions and luxurious leather upholstery.
If you're local (or if you decide to throw a few things in a bag and take an impromptu road trip), be sure to join the festivities in Deep Ellum this weekend, and look for our new warehouse, which will be open to the public during the Arts Festival. The warehouse is located at 2656 Main Street, just a few blocks from the store, which is at 2928 Main. We're gearing up for all the fun, and we hope you are too!
OH, would love to visit! Texas is so far away! Someday when we take that cross country trip...
ReplyDeleteHave a great week-end & hope you sell lots. Love that Eames chair, who doesn't, right? :-)
Yes, Texas would be a bit of a hike for you, but I'll hold you to the promise to stop by when you take the cross country trip. :)
DeleteHope you guys have a great weekend! The festival should be great for all the local businesses...
ReplyDeleteWe were told that the moped dealer two stores down from us sold every scooter on the floor last year, so it promises to be a very busy weekend. My daughter has taken off work today to help, and it will be all hands on deck tomorrow.
DeleteThere's one of those 50th aniv Eames loungers on the Columbus Craigslist (with the slip case book) for $3500.
ReplyDeleteWe have ours priced a little lower than that.
DeleteCan't wait to see more!
