Ooh La La: Dipped Chairs From Atelier Charivari

<br/><p>Occasionally, the sweetest finds are also the rarest ones.  Take, for instance, the pair of dipped chairs featured in these days’s post.  Painted by the very literally and figuratively Parisian Atelier Charivari, these 50+ year old beech bistro chairs have been given new life with a coat of grey and a hint of pink.  With the addition of little felt pads on the feet, these lovingly restored seats are at as soon as classic — just appear at these lines — and modern, what with last year’s explosion of colorblocked reputation on runways from Paris and Milan to New York and L.A.  As it usually does, last year’s style trends are now creating their way into house furnishings and accessories, and while colorblocking is no exception, we’re also fairly enamored with the pop-of-color-to-modernize-a-neutral therapy this pair has received.  The juxtaposition of an architectural grey with a light pink hue appropriate for a macaron shop storefront is at once edgy and feminine.  And if in the future the trend dies and along with it the owner’s affections, a simple dip into a matching grey or slick, glossy black will do the trick just fine.  As they say in Paris, “Tout vieux est nouveau encore” (everything old is new again).  Oh, of course, and also: “ooh la la.”</p><br/><br/><img alt="p Ooh La La: Dipped Chairs From Atelier Charivari amazing ideas " height="666" src="http://decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/p.jpg" title="Ooh La La: Dipped Chairs From Atelier Charivari amazing ideas " width="500" /><br/><br/><img alt="p Ooh La La: Dipped Chairs From Atelier Charivari amazing ideas " height="666" src="http://decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/p_.jpg" title="Ooh La La: Dipped Chairs From Atelier Charivari amazing ideas " width="500" /><br/><br/><img alt="p Ooh La La: Dipped Chairs From Atelier Charivari amazing ideas " height="666" src="http://decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/p__.jpg" title="Ooh La La: Dipped Chairs From Atelier Charivari amazing ideas " width="500" /><br/><br/><p>Photo credits: Atelier Charivari</p><br/><p>The post Ooh La La: Dipped Chairs from Atelier Charivari </p><br/><p>
