Metal Chairs: The FTI Papeete Has Charmed Me
November 17, 2007
Maybe it’s the unseasonably warm weather that’s making me think of springtime and flowers. Maybe it’s the fact that I have a very girly little girl at home who loves anything feminine, especially if it’s pink. Maybe I’ve finally lost my mind. Or maybe these chairs are just incredibly cute. (I’ll go with the last one, no matter what my friends say!)
I can totally see these chairs in a family restaurant, outside at a cozy bistro, at an outdoor concert venue, or anywhere that children and whimsical adults would gather. All it would take is a seat cushion to really dress these chairs up, but they’re just fine on their own, too.
There’s been a trend in interior and exterior design, a movement back to nature. Leaves, flowers, and natural textures are big right now. That’s another thing I like about these chairs. If you placed them at a little garden table, they’d look right at home. And with so many color selections, they could be matched to the prevailing shades of the surrounding flowers and foliage.Each chair is made of powder-coated metal. The leafy designs are laser-cut and attractive. The color selection is extraordinary. I could see the white chairs at a classic outdoor lawn party or wedding, and the black ones at a concert or outdoor theater. The green would be a good choice for blending in with natural surroundings. The other colors would be great for play areas; yes, my inner child really wants to have a tea party with the pink and lavender ones. Sad, isn’t it?
The specifications for the FTI Papeete chairs are these: height 83.5cm, seat height 45cm, width 42.5cm, depth 42.5cm. They come in the ten colors pictured here, and other colors are available upon request.
