I want to see the rest of that living room now. I love the whole look.

I appreciate the comment, my wife is the designer. I’ve posted some other furniture pieces on the mid century subreddit before with views of other rooms. The living room is getting there, the side table beside this chair is temporary.

My complements to your wife then. Wow. I checked up on your midcentury posts. You have a lot of lovely pieces there.

We are very thrifty and i search all the resale options often (fb, eBay, peddlers malls, less so Craigslist nowadays) for good deals. I refinish a lot of older pieces that need it so I don’t mind if it’s beat up when I buy it, Drexel is my favorite MCM brand. This chair was definitely a luxury purchase we saved for and thought about for awhile, as most expensive BIFL products can be, but we knew we wouldn’t find one exactly like it in the wild.

Yes, I can see why it’s a hobby for so many. It’s hard to compete with retired people for thrift store and fb marketplace finds. One day when I have more time or money.
