Seating

Seating...
I have such a Love for Seating whether it is Old Chairs-Settees or Sofas.
I assume it is all the detail-the character-the charm and for me going with neutral linen allows for all of the craftsmanship to show through.

Wonderful for the Entry way of a Home.

In the Living Room for Elegance. 
The Hallway.


The Front Porch..

In the Bedroom at end of bed-or Corner for reading.

The Office or as Display.

Maybe in a Velvet brown-The Contrast shares the details of the piece.

Comfy for a Family Room..
Each and Every one I Love-the More Detail -the More Carving-the Better.
All of these amazing Photos are shared from pinterest-visit gracefully vintage's pinterest {seating boar}d for the Gracious Sources.
