Back to Nature… Sort Of
By Christa TerrySome people prefer to keep the outdoors out and the indoors in, while others prefer to mix it up in creative and inventive ways. Nature and manmade artifacts come together brilliantly in a chair and a chaise from Chaircouture.
In this case, gilt carved French bergeres have been reupholstered with fabric that looks like it needs periodic mowing.
And here, a French chaise with verdigris patina has been reupholstered with one-of-a-kind water fabric that looks as if one could dive right in.
I’m not sure how one would go about purchasing one of these original creations, as each is unique, having been lovingly crafted by a certain Margaret. I suppose the first step would be e-mailing to inquire about prices and availability, which means $$$$. Sigh!
