We think it's safe to assume that Swallowtail is a crowd favorite here at Apartment Therapy. Because of this, we often make up any excuse to get out of our neighborhoods and head over to Russian Hill so we can stop by the shop and see what's new. Our latest obsession? These lovely low silver/blue silk velvet shell back club chairs.

The chairs are originally from the 1940's and sold as a pair for the price of $4,800. Why, why, why can't we have our entire apartment furnished from Swallowtail!

Wouldn't it be nice if furniture manufacturers made good quality classic stuff like this again?
