Fun desk chair?

February 19, 2008 8:38 AM

I need a 'decorative' desk chair. It doesn't have to be too comfortable, it only gets used for occasional filing. But it is in a bedroom, so I'd like for it to be fun and modern. Ikea is the only place I could think of to look, and I'd like some more options. Thanks!

I like this one at the Container Store.

I have this one from Ikea in blue-green. The website doesn't do it justice. It really pops with color.

Maybe try a Swopper?

Maybe CB2? Lobster Office chair is cute.

While it isn't really meant to be a desk chair, I've been thinking about getting this one for the desk in my guest room. It's cute and I think it would work.

Most cities have at least one secondhand-office-furniture store, and almost all cities have consignment stores, thrift stores, yard sales, rummage sales and the like.

(Tastybrains, don't get that chair! I had it and it broke right off the foundation after like a year.)

Sugarfish - Thanks for the warning, even if it does break my heart.
