Design from the sky

With the Captain having a career as he does, I've developed a fondness for guess what....aviation! We have drawings of planes done by a previous colleague of mine framed and on our walls. We have pictures of various planes the Captain has flown framed in our house and in his office. We have a wooden model of the Pilatus PC-12 on our mantel and one of the Wright Brother's first plane flying (with the assistance of some fishing wire) above it. So why not add this awesome looking chair to our home?

This sharp Aviator Chair has such an 'old time romantic era of flying' feel I can only imagine how it would look in a living room setting. Add a similarly colored rug, bookcase with tasteful books, a lamp, oh and me enjoy a double shot while relaxing and it looks picture perfect. Besides, it was recently marking down $200. Mere pennies I say. Shiny and industrial, the leather looks super soft and terribly sexy.



Glancing through the other options offered on the website with the aviator theme resulted in some drawers, trunks and a chest that while all made with the shiny aluminum and industrial feel, they just don't seem as unique. They seem like something that could be picked up elsewhere with a much lower price tag. I expect something more specific to aviation than just sheet metal.

None the less, the idea and theme is totally fetch. Yes, I'm trying to bring that back. It will succeed.

Cheers!
