Not my style, but the chair is beautiful.

For those who haven't received it and are curious -



So what would that style be called? I had a picture of a similar chair and thought at one time I'd like to make one - along with the thousand and one other things on that list.

I did not get that one. I will have to go to the site to see what it looks like.

Thanks, Ted. Barrel chair, eh. Must be a little higher class vintage than my usual.

It doesn't look too comfortable but then, FLW wasn't in to comfort as much as he was into the design. It is a beauty to look at!

This is more barrel than FLW's chair is, but I wouldn't lean back on this one, no telling which direction it would tip or roll.
