Ghost Chair

You might recall this office moodboard I created some time ago....

You might also notice the lovely ghost chair. I never thought I would actually pull the trigger on one of these babies, but it turns out, I didn't have to.

On Friday, Josh and I helped a family friend of ours move. He had some great antiques left to him from his parents who have both recently passed. It was actually quite fun looking through all of it. His mother loved carrousels and his father loved clocks. He had some great pieces and some even better antique furniture. The less fun part was the fact that it was 100+ degrees out and carrying boxes + heat = no fun. It was a good workout though!

Anyway, back to the ghost chair. After a couple loads, we were back at the house to load up again and in the middle of the lawn sat this lovely ghost chair. I was quite surprised to see it, because lets face it, the modern lines of this piece doesn't exactly mix with carrousels, clocks and antiques. Apparently, his parents used it out by their pool. I mentioned how much I loved it and was quite surprised to hear what followed, "Take it!". I was shocked, but he assured me he had no use for it and the only reason he kept it because it was his parents. Then, I assured him I would take good care of it and brought her home with me!

After doing some research, I found out that she is  Louis Ghost Chair made by Kartell...

Currently selling for $410.00, here.

So without further ado.....here. she. is.

Needless to say, I love her:)
