Fredericia Stingray: Best Sled Ever?

Kids, you might want to get mom and dad’s permission before you go out and make a sled out of their Stingray Chair.

Quite possibly the world’s best-looking (and most expensive?) sled.

Spotted: PH Artichoke

I was recently lucky enough to attend an English Premier League match between Arsenal and Fulham.

We arrived at the stadium an hour before the game to walk around and soak in the atmosphere. I got all excited when I spotted these PH Artichoke Pendants in the Club Section.

It’s always pretty incredible to see these famous design pieces up close and personal. Oh … and the game was pretty good, too.

What’s the Difference: Panton Classic vs. Panton Chair

Panton Classic Chairs

Panton Classic Chairs

Over the last few weeks, we’ve had a few people ask:

Why does the Panton Classic Chair cost over five times as much as the similar-looking Panton Chair?

The answer lies in the Panton Classic’s material, finish, and history.

The Panton Classic is Verner Panton’s original chair, which he designed for Vitra in 1967. Panton designed the Classic Chair with a hard foam plastic shell that features vibrant colors in a high-gloss lacquered paint. Since it is a high-design piece, Panton Classic is only suitable for indoor use.

The Panton Chair, on the other hand, has only been in production since 1999, when Vitra engineered a method to replicate the flawless construction of the Classic using a less expensive material. The Panton Chair is constructed from a single mold of plastic in a matte finish. Vitra treated these chairs with a special additive to fight UV rays, which makes it suitable for outdoor use, as well.

Cut a long story short: Panton Classic = Verner’s original masterpiece; Panton Chair = affordable reproduction.

Limited Edition: Cherry CH25 Easy Chair

Last week Carl Hansen & Søn released the Wegner CH25 Easy Chair in a rich cherry wood. There are only 25 of these beautiful chairs available worldwide, making them some of the rarest Hans Wegner pieces in existence.

Despite this, the Cherry CH25 costs the same as the regular oak chairs: $2,885.75 on sale ($3,395.00 after tomorrow, 10/16).

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own an extremely rare version of one of Hans Wegner’s original designs.

It’s so rare, in fact, that Carl Hansen & Søn hasn’t even released photos of it! However, below you’ll see the cherry finish, as well as images of the chair. The image that’s closest to this limited edition chair is the one with the baby sitting in it. Although keep in mind that the limited edition version has a natural paper cord seat.
