Name that Chair!

I spotted these two chairs in the receiving area at Goodwill on my way into the store...

Instant LOVE! (Otherwise known as 'Love at first sight' - but hey, I'm tired.)
I knew I couldn't carry them home on the bus...and even if I did, I wouldn't have a place for them...so I did the next best thing...I emailed Janice.

Does anyone know anything about these chairs?  My mad google skills revealed that they are Shaker Style...do we know anything else? Is there anything else to know? Do you LOVE them?

(Did you go get them J?)

  1. Oh my goodness I want those! Remind me to give you my email! :) Is this the goodwill on St. Clair by Bathurst? I must remember to head up that way some time!

  2. Love the chair! I believe they are a variation of Windsor dining chair. When I Google Image search "windor shaker chair", tons of similar chairs showed up. This one at Jas Becker (http://jasbecker.com/styles/modern-shaker-furniture/windsor-side-chair/)looks similar to yours but costs $1,250! I would get them and decide what to do with them later! :-D

  5. I don't know what they are called, but I have seen them around. Too bad you didn't grab them Janice...and too bad I don't have any room for them :(
