Nice Things

At the risk of entering the land of Conspicuous Consumption, I present the latest addition to Flippist World Headquarters: A pair of chairs.

Walnut and leather, new, and a far cry from the rest of the wooden furniture in the house (which was mostly gifted, from bargain or thrift stores, or even found at the curb.)

Nice things that complete a corner that has a “designer look.”

Based on a chair that Kennedy once used for a conference, these Scandinavian Modern pieces have a certain timelessness.

A place for morning coffee, a place to engage in civilized discourse.

Civilized, indeed.
