Ten beautiful seating options from our man in Connecticut:

Dimensions and pricing after the jump!

This mid-century modern Italian lounge chair features gorgeous lines and wood-and-metal construction. It measures roughly 36 inches tall, 24 wide, and 32 deep. A few very minor scuffs on the arms and legs. $325.

This Sherrill arm chair is wrapped in beautiful chartreuse patent leather. It needs some attention at its seams but is in otherwise flawless shape; no tears. ~~$150.~~

On to the stools!

The two adjustable square-top stools (left and center) measure 15 inches across and 17-25 inches tall. $70 each, $120 for the pair.

The formerly-adjustable stool at right (it’s lost its extendable legs) measures 15 inches across and 23 inches tall. $60.

Oh what a top! This oil-soaked-wood beauty with Scovill green base measures roughly 14 inches across, 13 deep, and 26 tall as pictured, but can be adjusted about two inches higher or four inches lower. $95.

This unique black splay-legged stool measures 30 inches tall and 13 inches across its top. $90.

The grey guy on the left measures 13 inches across its top and can adjust from about 24 to 30 inches tall. ~~$60.~~

The rusty-backed fellow in the middle measures 13 inches across its top and anywhere from 23 to 27 inches tall (plus 13 more to account for the back). ~~$110.~~

And the grey-backed gentleman on the right measures 13 inches across its top as well, and anywhere from 17-24 inches tall (plus a regal 14 more for its back). ~~$100.~~

Last Friday we took a little day trip up to Morris CT to visit a new friend we met at Brimfield. Boy was it worth it. Here’s a little peek into one of his barns:

And that’s only one of four aisles in one of his barns.

Best of all, everywhere you look there are patches of our favorite color: Scoville green. Our friend occasionally does factory cleanouts for Scovill, a one-time giant of American industry who used to paint all their work benches, trash cans, wood trim, etc., the most perfect light green color you can possibly imagine:

tall drawers in scovill green, ammo boxes, and other industrial goods

So as daylight faded we started filling up our Uhaul trailer. Stools, chairs, drawers, pink Pyrex, and tons of Scovill green.

But our favorite piece?
