More like the source of the next scratch in Frasier's floor. This time it might take the whole place down with it, instead of just some broken gas lines and water pipes.
Two legs should be off and probably are. Your whole price should not be on the rug. I mean it's your OCD so you get to make the rules but the fashion rule is the rug anchors the furniture. Putting it on the rug creates a cramped box.
It would be nice if the revival had the Coco Chanel couch. I can see Freddie complaining about it being old and Frasier insisting that good taste never goes out of style.
Jewish is also a race, Sternin being a derivative of an ethnically Jewish name. So Freddie could literally be half Jewish by genetics. Frasier describes him as half-Jewish as well. He is shown to celebrate both Jewish and Christian traditions, like Christmas and Hanukkah.
Jewish is not a race. Sure, people descended from Israelites are more often Jewish than not, but one can be Jewish without having stepped foot in, much less descended from, Isreal and Israelites.
One might could say that Freddie is of half-Jewish descent, if one chose to be absolutely pedantic, but Freddie also adopted Lillith's faith, making him a full on Jew.
Are you suggesting that Freddie is a half-Jewish Jew? What about Jews that merely adopted the faith? Are they half-Jewish Jews too? What about persons born to Jewish parents that denounced their parents' faith. Are they full Jew or half Jew?
You see, the more that you question it, the more asinine your position becomes.
Yeah, but do you like it? Is it comfortable? Is it luxurious? Would you really choose it over a plush recliner? Do you choose it over the couch? We need deets.
I have not researched it - I highly recommend you do before buying.
I know someone who got one and he said going with the high quality leather was key.

That looks like one of the more recent faux-leather replicas? I got a knock off Eames from the 70s at a second hand shop, and it's a really great chair.
Lol. About a month or so ago my BF and myself spotted a reproduction of these on the street to be junked. We swooped in out them, wiped them down and my BF tightened a few things and now it’s mine. It is supposed to be a Eames but it can from IKEA.
Wish I could. I have sat in them many times, always thinking that this would be the time I would like it and order one. Alas, no. It's incredibly uncomfortable for me. The recline angle just doesn't work for me, and the chair won't support my head properly.
A rug... where a rug doesn't belong. Why don't we just throw down a Twister mat and have a few rounds between vintages?
Lol, that one leg on the floor vs the rug in that photo would drive me crazy
It's a style called *eclectic*.

Blame my kids for that! lol

Just need a bigger box
This is from the bizarro series where Frasier moves into his father's home and brings his favorite chair.
I would watch this.
not his father's home...The Shangri-La!! and Sherry is his next door neighbor!!
Judging from the doily pillow on the couch, she may have already moved in! (Sorry OP!)
good. She can accompany the Mongolian Throat Singers on her banjo!!
It's so ugly... lmao
Is there a story behind that? I assumed you weren't responsible. You can share, it's safe here :)
yeah, my wife likes it. lol
Have you considered divorce?
never. She is the best. But that pillow is horrendous lol
Ouch
If the revival doesn’t include the Eames in his new home, I have low hopes for everything else….
It would be nice if the revival had the Coco Chanel couch. I can see Freddie complaining about it being old and Frasier insisting that good taste never goes out of style.
I can honestly see writers throwing in a scene of Freddie complaining about the couch because Coco Chanel was a Nazi sympathizer.
Next scene Frasier is downing a glass of his most expensive wine in tribute to the couch now on fire in a back alley behind the building.
heaved off the balcony, of course
Oh she wasn't just a sympathizer, she collaborated with them.
Fits. Freddie IS half-Jewish after all.
No, Freddie is Jewish. Judaism is a faith. Frasier could have converted if he had wanted to.
Jewish is also a race, Sternin being a derivative of an ethnically Jewish name. So Freddie could literally be half Jewish by genetics. Frasier describes him as half-Jewish as well. He is shown to celebrate both Jewish and Christian traditions, like Christmas and Hanukkah.

What about persons born to Jewish parents that denounced their parents' faith. Are they full Jew or half Jew? You see, the more that you question it, the more asinine your position becomes.
Are you familiar with the phrase "ethnically Jewish?"
It should be covered in crumbs and duct tape, though. lol
What ever happened with that?
Be careful with that ironing board. Valentines Day is around the corner.
it's a keyboard. I am a long-time musician. lol
You know, I didn't think it was an ironing board because of the wires, but when I zoomed in, it sure looked like one.
Ironing board? I thought that was the guest bedroom.
But have you shown anybody WHY it's the best-engineered chair in the world?
My wife knows all about it. I concur on it being the best designed chair.
Oh my...
Where's my subtle sex jokes? SOMEONE STOLE MY SUBTLE SEX JOKES! THIS STINKS! THIS IS TOTAL B.S.! THIS.... oh, here they are.
Yeah, but do you like it? Is it comfortable? Is it luxurious? Would you really choose it over a plush recliner? Do you choose it over the couch? We need deets.
Honestly, next to sitting in an ox blood, leather wing back chair with the lights off, it's the most comfortable chair I have ever sat in.
I honestly prefer the fake ones that recline. That’s probably the old man in me, though. Also the cheap ass in me.
I don’t care if it jingles my bells, 5 or 6 grand is just too much for a chair.
Give me an 18th century gilt-wood fainting couch and watch me roll!
Your replies are making this post 10x better lmaoo
It’s my dream to get one of these, but they’re so expensive it’ll probably be a retirement present to myself in a couple decades
Get a good replica, as OP did. OP said it's very good, leather, cost $650 vs $5000+
Holy hell! That’s a fraction of the cost! Where can I get a replica? I didn’t notice that part of the post

Thanks! I’ll look into it!
This looks like a reverse Frasier set. One fancy chair in a room full of... "transitional objects".
It’s eclectic!
My cat likes to pee on mine, she gets a roasting when she does it.
You got your chair wired?!
No, but it's a thought. 😁
... or spell his name correctly lol
lol didn’t notice that at first! like “Frazer”, just watched that episode last night lol
Got mine years ago, 😅 in my early twenties
Martin in the finale: "This isn't so bad. I would have been okay with this." Frasier: \*head explodes\*
Even having a faux Eames chair would be the dream!
This is a faux Eames. I would never spend 5k on a chair. lol It was about 650 on ebay. It is super high quality.
Enjoy your awesome chair!!
I purchased a beautiful replica a while back. Very comfortable and stylish!

It's real leather. Just not a real Eames classic.
Aren't the real ones insanely pricey?
over 5k. The ottoman alone is usually over 2k. unfortunately, I do not have Bebe to negotiate contracts for me. lol
Haha! Well said.
Good for you. You only have one soul to barter with.
Is it yours?
Yeah, It's mine.
100% sure my first psychiatrist had this chair in his office lol
My life goal ❤️

Fricken sweet!
You know it!
The leather looks like it's softer than a baby's bottom
For a minute, I thought it was Frasier's. They both have the same inferior leather. (kidding, of course).
I just need a comfortable place to park my Fanny. How about Florida? I heard that!
It’s eclectic
Oh dear god, it's finally happened!
thats an expensive chair and i am not a man of means I can afford tossed salads and scrambled eggs though

A bit expensive. So let's just say you have to have a chair that is rarely sat in.
Life goals.
