This unphotogenic 1965 design is the best selling executive chair ever. For good reason. It is comfortable and makes you feel important. Vintage 4 point chairs (have 4 wheels); re-release has required 5 points, but not as pretty. You can buy re-release in lots of colors from hive.

Neil Shigley, oil paintings

posted on February 10th, 2008 by violet in art, objects

i like paintings with a lot of paint (as well as all the usual things that need to be there). Neil Shigley’s are deep.

i really, really, really should have bought this one.

artisanal market

posted on December 27th, 2006 by violet in gear, london, objects

shop/snack: spitalfields market stalls , which is an amazing artisanal foods market and craft market for up-to-date handcrafts. the location, nearby buildings, and setup looks quite touristy and junky. but it’s actually very fine quality foods and exceedingly funky artists. absolutely hand made. the setting is completely incongruous.
