There is something very glam and luxe about Lucite furniture. Lucite furniture started being produced in the 1930s so you can find vintage styles as well as contemporary and modern. I am especially smitten with Lucite and brass combinations. Appropriately nicknamed ghost or phantom furniture - you can see how this clear furniture is an incredible piece for home decor. In fact I have yet to find a photo of a Lucite piece sitting haggard and abused in a shabby room. I am convinced only cool in-the-know people have these pieces :)
Unfortunately Lucite does not come cheap! But here are some thrifty look for less accent pieces:
i LOVE lucite- great post!!
ReplyDeleteI was thinking about getting a lucite desk chair in a Louis XIV style with arms like one of the ones you posted, figuring it would take up less visual space in my already crammed bedroom. But then I thought about my legs sticking to the lucite and not being able to sit on my foot comfortable and I'm hesitating. Thoughts? -Angela C
ReplyDeleteI agree that being able to sit on your foot comfortably is very important because that is how I sit as well :) I would advise getting a cushion for your chair so you can have the best of both worlds.
