Tired of waiting for your dinner party!

Dear Zac,

How long does one take to find a dream set of dining chairs??? We have waited for months for that long anticipated hand written invitation on the Cartier stationary I gave you last Christmas. I have had two bfs since you first tempted us with that fantastic idea :)
I love your custom dining table with the beautiful natural solid wood top on a painted industrial metal base. I thought these Edward wormley chairs by Dunbar on 1stdibs, with the curvy arms and back will create a nice contrast with the table's clean lines. Imagine them re-upholstered in a beige leather...hot!

I also saw these beauiful Gio Ponti superleggera chair chairs on Cassina's website.


The Livia chair by Gio Ponti now comes in a million colors!

I also thought the Jean Prouve standard chairs will complement the table's geometric silhouette. They are also available in a number of cute pastel colors but the black is the classic.http://www.unicahome.com/p8055/vitra/standard-chair-by-jean-prouve.html

Still dreaming about the side table by Pierre Chareau :)

They are also available at JF Chen. Will find out if it's a reproduction. How much do you think it cost?
