I keep seeing these chairs pop up and thought I’d mention them.  They are called Domed Chairs and apparently they have been around since 18th century France.  It is a strange look to me and I’m not entirely sold yet.  It’d have to be a pretty open minded client and eclectic space before I would [...]
