b) Bonnet chairs I will always love...no matter what they are covered in, no matter if they are 'in style' or not. This one below from AH&L I especially love, with the animal print and the tufting and the nailheads, how cozy is this? This is from designer Amy Morris via Coup d'Etat for a recent show house featured in AH & L.
P.S. I found some CRAZY bonnet chairs out there! Made me re-think my previous statement above. What do you think about the bones bonnet from Voila Gallery? Funky, right?! These chairs are also referred to as Porter's chairs, Canopy chairs, Hooded chairs, and many other fun names.
