For a Christmas gift idea to delight the most avant-garde, there’s the famous bentwood chair in any color combination imaginable. This design, long recognized as a classic, carries the romantic nostalgia of nineteenth century Vienna where it made its first appearance over one hundred and twenty years ago. At ease in practically any kind of room setting -- sleekest modern to richest Victorian -- these chairs can go everywhere in the home, from the living room to the kitchen. Made by American of Chicago, there’s also another style without arms. As shown: $33.90. Armless $21.90. Note: In the Boston area, the American of Chicago line is carried at Columbia & Myers.
