Tolix Chairs. Voilà!

marais_header
Maybe it’s because I just read Molly Wizenberg’s book in which she fondly recalls memories of Paris as a child, but I have been loving the A chair by Tolix lately. It’s like bringing a Parisian bistro home.
They’re sold at Design Within Reach here and, with for slightly cheaper at Pottery Barn here. I would love to find a few vintage ones - the more scuffed up, the better.
Below I have compiled some really gorgeous photos of these chairs. Aren’t they incredibly versatile?
Some of them are actually the AC chair, A56 or A97, all similar but a bit more rounded. And I’ve thrown in some of the tolix stools for good measure.
There’s a nice little write-up about the history of these galvanized beauties here.

    I found this great place in Chicago that has the best selection of Tolix anywhere, and you can custom any chair or stool in any color!!!!!

Britt McMaster is addicted to cucumbers. She and her husband, Ryan, live and work in a tiny apartment in downtown Vancouver, BC. Both Ryan and Britt love to write lists of all their ideas on action sheets, and they have pages and pages. They write especially quickly after they've each had a dry cappuccino or two. Most of those fanciful ideas will stay on paper, but Cucumbersome is Britt's platform to try some out.
