Herman Miller is on sale at DWR including quite a few official licensed Charles Eames pieces.

The white Eiffel Chair was one of the inspirations for my tiny desk area (it can’t be called much else than an area… maybe a niche? but I digress). It is currently on sale for only $179.10.

I bought my poor-man’s version, the Snille white desk chair, at Ikea for $19.99. If I squint until it hurts and make my eyes go cockeyed it morphs into a Charles Eames. It is a surprisingly adorable and comfortable little chair for twenty bucks.

Priced at only $799., I really wish I had seen this back when I was shopping for an inexpensive sofa. With mid-century style legs and a nice tailored line, this is a vast improvement over the big, rolled-arm monstrosity we bought for the same price. Of course, CB2 (Crate and Barrel’s younger, hipper sibling) has only 2 store locations (both in Chicago) and has only just launched their catalog. If you can overlook the overly precious product descriptions, there are some decent pieces that won’t break the bank. No clue how the quality is. Anyone?
