telophase: (Default)
Forgot to take meds Thursday. Remembered to take them Friday. Forgot to take meds Saturday. Withdrawal hits double-time today, ugh. Took them today, but that's not helping a whole lot. :P
telophase: (Near - que?)
So we've got two chairs that look like this:

cut for pics )

Need suggestions for a couch that won't look horribly out of place next to them. Would prefer to go with the vaguely '30s (or 1920s-1940s) vibe I sort of get from them than the 1950s-60s mModern vibe. i.e it needs to look like something you'd see in a movie made from an Agatha Christie novel rather than an early James Bond movie.

In other words, while these chairs are cheap-and-cheerful Modern*, I'm going with the Art Deco/Art Moderne elements of them that I can see in these 1930s and 1930s-inspired club chairs.

I did find a couch sort of like the reproduction 1930s couches in the top photos here, at *shudder* Crate & Barrel, but it's $1500 (on sale in the store right now) and $1200 is really closer to my top limit. I'd prefer more like $800, which I know cuts out a lot of options, but would go to $1200 for the right sofa.

Plz to not be telling me to just buy what I love and they'll go together. I've been doing that for fifteen years and they do not go together, they look like crap together. I'd rather have a destination in mind.

ETA: Also, it needs to have arms large enough to sit back against when lounging reading a book. :)


* Which I can find EVERYWHERE I LOOK and am getting heartily tired of.
