Help Identifying Chairs

Much better! May I ask where your sales venue is and type?

 

I'm located in a Victorian seaport in Washington state USA. I sell 40% British antiques, 40% new British product and the balance is "inspired by". I sell a lot of chairs lol. I'm actually desperately short on them now. I'm a luxury British home goods and gift store (lighting to furniture to throw pillows and a bar of soap).

It's a funny market...the "brown stuff" isn't popular right now in the UK but my clients love it. If I could find a container full of brown with leather I'd be in! The margins are great. That said if I only sold chairs it might not be so good lol

I also sell anchient bible boxes (my icon) and other higher end stuff sourced in the UK.

The brand is Bubble N Squeak home.

 

Thanks. Sounds like a nice upscale market. I could only dream of such clientele here in the cornfields On the flip-side, this is a great place to buy.

 

I do have a good upscale market...but if I moved to the big city I could double most of my prices....that said...I'd have to commute....get rich or commute????....I will stay here and just do it slowly lmao.

I actually am funded to open the second on the other side of our little pond in a year or two as we prove the concept. Then I really can buy 40' containers of chairs lol.

 

you're the only one of us so far who's got a ready market for the brown stuff...
very interesting..!!

 

Hm. Any specifics you're after from this side of the pond? I'm quite good at sourcing.

 

Hey, hey, hey it's KING ELLIOT in the HOUSE!

Thought I'd give you guys a lil' update on the chairs, had them on eBay for a while, sat at £200 with no interest...

... so, I started to get sick of the sight of them, so what I did was, I loaded them in my van...

... and threw them in the river Mersey!!














Nah, I'm just kidding, took them to a vintage/antique shop and after some bartering they paid £75. Wonder what they'll try and sell them at?

Anyway, thanks a lot for all the help, a great little forum this, if I ever get anymore old pieces of tat then you'll see King Elliot rolling up on this place again
