Good Questions: Where's This Woven Chair From?

11.24chair.jpgHello AT,

Can you help me find this chair?

I've been looking everywhere for a round woven chair with metal legs, just like this one to go in a currently unloved corner of my living room. I've also seen the same chair in a light brown color with (I think) a slightly denser weave on the wicker...

Can you tell me who makes it? Is it vintage or new? I can't turn one up on ebay or Craig's List, but maybe I'm not using the right search terms. The photo is from Design Sponge sneak peek of Sarah Blanchard's beautiful house.

Thanks! Lisa

Dear Lisa,

We, too, have seen this chair a lot lately and it's definitely a vintage design, though it MUST have been reissued lately to be getting so much play.

Anyone have a positive ID on this one? AT Baseball cap for the answer here as well......

I had a dish chair like that. It was from Pier 1 Imports, but that was about five years ago. We bought it on sale because the wicker was a little broken and put down a pillow just like in the picture. Left it behind when we moved. It was great in a small corner. Good luck!

I have two chairs like this in light brown. We got them about four years ago from Pier 1 at about $60 apiece. I first saw them in some design magazine, but I can't recall which one now. I'll do a little digging. Good luck!

I also have this chair; when I bought it at Pier 1, it was available in a light honey brown and a slightly darker chestnut. They were still available the last time I checked, but that's been a few months now.

You can also find chairs, in this darker brown/or black you mention, at Flora Grubb in San Francisco (plant/outdoor gardening center) they are reasonably priced and hail from south africa.
