red chair = fun fabrics
Recently my friend Sara expressed some interest in fixing up an old chair and painting it a bright shade of wonderful red; I've been dying to do a red chair for myself lately and last week, decided to see what types of fabrics I could find. Here are some good ones! I've got more coming later this week!
allora.signature.ROSS
Last but not least, allora.signature.ROSS is the first pair of chairs for allora. These rather traditional, scalloped back chairs are painted in metallic silver enamel for a fun, surprising look. At first glance, this pair appears to be made of metal, however, on closer inspection these chairs retain the warmth of their true material, wood. The seat cushion is finished with a retro slate and fern starburst weave fabric. Have a great weekend!
allora.signature.NELSON
I'm so excited about this sweet pair and cannot wait to begin working with the caning on the back. The rounded curves of these two chairs mimic the seats, which sit atop slender, fluted legs for a soft feminine look. These chairs are being primed this week and are available for allora.custom.
allora.signature.KLINE
This pair of chairs started off as a trio (the third is going to be allora.custom.KIAWAH for cute newlyweds Jimmy & Logan Fowles) that was given to me by my Aunt Nora, who remembered allora while cleaning her attic! These chairs are obviously in need of a little TLC in the back department, but are no worse for the wear as far as sturdiness and character goes. Currently, I'm reassembling the delightfully unembellished but beautifully curved wrung for one of these two, and then they're ready to be primed and finished! The seats have been refurbished, but no fabric or color selections have been made! These could be your allora.custom chairs, made to match your space (or to jazz it up a little!) and as always, 100% unique.
allora.signature.CANDIA
This contemporary set of chairs features a fabulously exaggerated extended back that is symmetrical about the horizontal access formed by the seat. They will surely add interest to your home or patio! Both chairs are made of tubular aluminum (an allora first!) and have been finished in a bright cobalt enamel. I know you're probably wondering where the seats are, and they have been cut but not recovered as of yet. I'm still looking for the perfect fabric--and am contemplating an exterior fabric, so that this lovely pair can remain the green grass! As I mentioned yesterday... some of these chairs are still a work in progress, so let me know if you're interested in this set, and we can work together to select a fabric!
