A few of my favorite Jamestown Lounge things

...for all you Jamestown Lounge fans out there.

It's all in the details. This carved arm was the first element of Jamestown Lounge Feudal Oak that caught my eye when I was looking for furnishings for this circa 1961 shoebox ranch. Our last house had such character in the woodwork! This carving, I was certain, would make up for that loss.





The seductive arm turned out to be part of a couch and there were pieces to match. These arms are also on a massive arm chair with a big ottoman. End tables, intricately carved and identical on both ends!



This chair came along later, and is Jamestown Lounge British Oak.
I adore the notched arms and the carving on the back.




Check out the carving on the side of this Jamestown Lounge Feudal Oak chair.
It's a great one for sitting and knitting by the window.

I love the effect the carvings have on this Feudal Oak drum table.


This coffee table has the massive carvings, too.



The tabriz looks a bit more rose colored than it really is, but I love the details.
Oh, did I mention that?

Here is the poster that scandalized the Pan Am Exposition in Buffalo, NY in 1901.


Well, okay, a copy of it.

Need a place to sit while removing your boots?


Next time? Maybe the rest of the British Oak collection, then on to Colonnade and then American Modern.
