eBay Scavenger

•Vintage/Retro High Back Club Chair for $175: If your living room or bedroom could use a touch of kitsch, this newly re-upholstered armchair has a classic MCM shape and a nice, tall back.

•Knoll Spoleto Tecnico Chair for $299/ea: A question posted last week about sexy chairs for bad backs prompted us to search eBay for these laced-down leather and chrome chairs. This seller has four for $299 apiece. Pricey, but still $266 less than if you bought them new.

•Danish Modern teak "Surfboard" coffee table for $695: The long, low, bulk-free lines of a surfboard coffee table give you plenty of space to stack books, to rest your drink, to play your cards...

•Danish Coffee Table Bench for $305: A sculptural MCM entryway bench or a coffee table? You choose (the cushion comes off).

i have that exact highback chair. my grandmother had it for decades and then passed it to me when she moved, and it's been sitting in my parents' basement for two years now, as i cannot find a fabric to reupholster it (right now it's got a cream, green, and red chenille floral fabric--ugh). i want something bold and colorful that doesn't scream kitsch the way it does now.
