These chairs look really great in my open, minimal loft space. Most of my other furniture is black and minimal. And when I told my girlfriend that I was going to upgrade some things and replace my clear plastic modern chairs, she lobbied hard for this, which is a replica of a Wegman classic. The deep dark brown finish of the wood and the natural hemp seat really add a nice contrast to my otherwise sleek and minimal interior design.
The top piece on my chair does not show any seams or indication of its having been constructed with multiple pieces as others have mentioned in reviews of other Y chairs. If so, it has been disguised very well! The only noticeable sign of this being a truly cheaper chair is that it is fairly light. The lathe work is not quite as smooth and the finish is not as even as a real repro would be, but it's absolutely great for this lower price. I only bought one. But if someone is looking to get multiple chairs for a dining table or a business setting, this a great way to get a classic mid century look (echoing the feel of the Vandamm house from "North by Northwest") - at a fraction of the cost.
This wishbone chair is a solid reproduction of the famous chair by a Danish designer named Hans Wegman. The original chairs are more than four times the Overstock price. Now that I have four of these I can say that there is no apparent difference in quality or comfort from the real things. I am a big fan of not overpaying for something, and this is one of those examples. Awesome mid-century design, high quality natural hemp seat and a warm, dark brown finish hitting just the right note of contrast. Cant be beat.
I did a lot of research to find a close replica of the Hans Wegner chair, and this one is by far the best option out there. I had a few concerns prior to ordering this specific item, namely that it would be flimsy, the wood wouldn't be the correct color, and that they wouldn't be comfortable to sit in for long periods of time. However, once receiving the chairs, all these concerns were put to rest. The material is very solid and not cheap at all. The color on the page is essentially the same color as the chairs. And finally, the chairs are actually very comfortable to sit in. The best part is perhaps that they come assembled and very well-packaged in bubble wrap. On a side note, I have also seen these chairs pop up on home flash sale sites (One Kings Lane, Joss and Main, etc), and I'm fairly certain they are the same exactly product. Although these sites sell this item for the same price, they often charge an extra $20-40 for shipping, and they do not accept returns. Just something to keep in mind if you are considering purchasing these chairs.
Know that if they do not meet your expectations, you will be spending 80.00 per chair pair to return order this is the first land last time I will order from overstock expensive lesson learned for product that did not meet expectations
I am very pleased with the Wishbone Y Chairs (2) that I purchased. I have researched the chairs and their mid-century designer since then. These are excellent reproductions at a very reasonable price. I plan to buy two more.
Bought two of these chairs to fill in my living room space. The design is just gorgeous and, while they aren't the most comfortable thing in the world, they are perfect for what I bought them for. No assembly required and they were packed well. Am so pleased!
I was looking for something affordable and stylish for my son's home. He has a lot of Asian art and dark taupe walls with light hardwood floors. The chair looks amazing. Clean and modern and blends well with minimalistic furnishings, without looking "themey". We both love it and his cat hasn't used it as a scratch post.
I bought 4 chairs for my newly built back house veranda. I had a Jacuzzi built in and some cocktail desk and I needed 4 chairs too. It turned out these chairs match my needs. Cheap, affordable, brand new, with amazing look and natural material construction. What more can you ask?
We have a more contemporary look in our condo and use these chairs in the office and on occasion as end chairs for the dining table when we have over 6 guests. They are stylish, comfortable and durable. This is a copy of a classic design. Our neighbors have the original and the differences are minimal.
