An homage to the iconic Eames Molded Fiberglass Chair, the D'Hauteville Concrete Chair is a worthy update to this classic mid-century design. It's designed by Julie Legros and Henri Lavallard Boge, with steel legs and a concrete seat/back that combine to evoke modern building techniques while blending harmoniously into a wide variety of decors.
Debuted in 1938 — when it was known as the BKF Chair, after its designers Antonio Bonet, Juan Kurchan and Jorge Ferrari Hardoy — this time-tested sling has appeared everywhere from MoMA to college dorms. The Parabellum Butterfly Chair takes the design and updates it with premium materials, including free-range bison leather, powder-coated metal frames, and automotive vinyl backing. Available in pumpkin or black with a copper plated metallic or black base.
Inspired by patio chairs of the 1940's, the Loll Pliny Outdoor Lounge Chair is a one-piece affair with no open ends and a stainless steel frame. The seat and back are built using a 100% recycled material constructed primarily from plastic milk jugs. Available in a variety of colors to match any decor.
Rare is the bedroom that couldn't use a little more storage. The Nest Storage Bed is a stylish platform-style bed with integrated storage that's both smart and discreet. The platform itself rises on gas pistons that make it possible to lift with just a single hidden strap — even with mattress still in place — and are built to hold up to repeated use, while the frame is built from plywood, wrapped in foam padding, and covered in a removable slipcover that's available in a huge array of fabrics and leathers. Made in Italy.
Depending on your background, the Stephen Kenn x Truck Furniture Boomerang Chair may have traveled more in the weeks before it's delivered than your have. A collaboration between Kenn and Tokuhiko Kise of Truck Furniture, the chair is covered in Kenn's vintage military canvas, which is shipped to Tokyo to be applied to the Truck design. The pieces are then shipped back to LA, before heading out to you.
It's not practical to carry a tool box with you everywhere you go. The Leatherman Surge Multi-Tool, however, was designed for exactly that. It packs a ridiculous amount of functionality into its 4.5-inch body, including two sets of pliers, multiple wire cutters, a wire stripper, a crimper, multiple knives and files, can and bottle openers, a saw, scissors, an awl, multiple drivers, and a ruler. It's available in silver or black, and also makes a great father's day gift, with engraving available for just $7.

It's difficult to deny how popular industrial decor has become recently, and one of the most sought after items are Crank Tables. The Hure Crank Table might be the cream of the crop, using four 3-ton crank mechanisms that adjust from 30" dining to 42" bar height. It's also available with various base finishes and tops ranging from concrete to steel and chrome. Each table is made from scratch and versatile enough to be your next office boardroom table or just the new dinner table at home.
Odds are you're never going to get to fly in an F-4 Phantom, but now you can know what it was like by taking a seat in your very own F-4 Phantom II Ejection Seat. Taken directly from one of these fighter jets, the seat was manufactured by Martin-Baker Aircraft, and has been professionally cleaned, refurbished, and riveted to a durable hand-finished steel base. Details include a seatbelt, grip handle, empty oxygen tank and release button, and both a plaque on the rear of the seat and a certificate of authenticity. Note: No longer functional, so don't expect to go flying through the roof in the event of an emergency/in-law visit.

It might be the most expensive table ever made. But its price isn't what makes The Kahiko Table so desirable. Instead, it's the material it's made of. It starts with the sleek base, made from a composite of engineered wood and carbon fiber that acts as a perfect support for the main event: two book-matched pieces of 50,000-year old Ancient Kauri, the oldest workable wood in the world. In addition to its age, the wood possesses a unique wave-like grain that causes the surface appear three dimensional even though it's flat. And since the grain is unique to this type of wood, you're pretty much guaranteed to never see it anywhere else.
Inspired by a trip to Spain in the 1950s, the Borge Mogensen Spanish Chair combines sleek Scandinavian design with rustic details. The shape is based on ornate chairs found everywhere from Andalusia to India, but Mogensen updated the shape, eliminated the carvings, and kept the arms wide enough to provide a rest for a drink. The chair is available with natural or black leather, with an oak frame in your choice of lacquered, soaped, or black lacquered finish — or, if you prefer, they can send it to you unfinished, instead.
Clean lines meet quality craftsmanship in the Sean Woolsey Haack Table. Made by hand in Woolsey's Southern California studio, this stunning table features a top of American premium black walnut, with edges that are hand shaped with a spokeshave and other tools to give them a soft look, and a solid steel square tubing base, powder coated in your choice of white or black. It most certainly isn't cheap, but when you're talking about a piece of furniture that you're likely to have to decades, it's not that crazy, either.
The word "abyss" can certainly bring along some negative connotations, but one look at the Abyss Table will have you thinking about another word: "amazing". Handmade by local artisans and craftspeople using high-grade, ethically-sourced wood and glass, this mesmerizing piece of furniture functions as both a conversation starter and an actual table, but you should be warned: guests are likely to spend inordinate amounts of time staring down into its depths, so don't take it personally.
The Adirondack is an iconic piece of outdoor furniture, but as anyone who has spent hours in one can tell you, the multi-slatted design isn't the most comfortable in the world. The Loll Lollygagger Lounge Chair takes this classic design to the next level, using a two-lane back to provide added comfort, placing the various pieces at just the right angles, and even throwing in a bottle opener under the right armrest lest you get thirsty and actually need to leave your seat.
It doesn't matter if you're outfitting a modern, all-white loft apartment 50 floors above Manhattan, an all-glass beach house in Malibu, an all-wood cabin in the Ozarks, or just a regular old house in Anytown, USA — you can never go wrong with a true classic like the Eames Lounge Chair and Ottoman. Made in America from hand-selected materials for true heirloom quality, this is one piece of furniture you won't be replacing — no matter where you live. And it's now available in an all-black edition.

It might be called an armchair, but the Armada Armchair is as much a sculptural piece as it is seating. Surprisingly devoid of arm rests — you know, the things that make an armchair an armchair — this sleek seat features a bottom frame made from solid wood like American Walnut, Elm, Cherry, and Pear, and a seat that's a combination of thin steel covered by high-quality leather or fur. Feel like adding a pillow? Not to worry — the Armada's clean lines are safe thanks to a magnetic attachment system.
Designed in 1957 and produced until the 1970's — when the factory burned down — the Scandia Senior Easy Chair is a classic piece of Scandinavian design reborn. Working closely with the original manufacturers, this sleek chair has recreated in perfect detail, including the laminated and lacquered American Walnut seat, the dark brown leather cushion, and the satin chrome base. Guaranteed to look great in any space, from a SoHo loft to a mountain cabin.
Beautiful, comfortable, and simple, the Toro Lounge Chair is the perfect addition to your modern living room — letting you relax in style with a piece of furniture that only grows more attractive with time. The frame is perfectly crafted from natural, solid beech wood, while the sling is made from full grain leather. Available in chocolate leather with a smoke frame, and in colorways they call night and day (a slightly off-white leather sling and frame, and a deep black), the sling will age the more you sit in it. It's the ideal combination of comfort, style, and durability, all while staying lightweight enough to easily move around.
It might be called a sofa, but we doubt you'll be "plopping down" on the Peugeot Onyx Sofa. For one, it's made out of lacquered black carbon fiber that's been fused to a hand-cut portion of Volvic volcanic lava stone from France's Auvergne region, none of which sounds very springy. It also weighs 800 pounds, most of which is centered on one side of its 10-foot body — so depending on where you've put it, you probably won't want to put any extra stress on your floor. Then again, considering the price, we're sure you've already thought of that.
It may have been designed in 1934, but the Tolix Marais A Chair looks just as comfortable in an ultra-modern lounge as it did on the sidewalk patios of pre-war Paris cafes. Created by Xavier Pauchard, the man who brought galvanized steel to France, this iconic chair is created through a process of 100 manual operations, is stackable up to 10 high, and still made in Autun, the same Burgundy town where the company was founded. And don't worry if you're outfitting an entire restaurant/lounge area — they make a matching armchair and stool, as well.
No, it's not what you're thinking — the Turnstone Buoy isn't some newfangled device that's going to make it easier to moor that nice new boat you got. Instead, it's a new take on the standard stool, with a rounded bottom that lets it gently rock around, keeping you from staying still too long (the chair can either tilt five degrees or 12, depending on how you adjust it). With the handle on the outside, you can easily move the Buoy to anywhere you want to sit, and adjust its height from 17 to 23 inches. Choose from six base colors, and 20 seat colors, fabrics, and patterns, customizing your chair so it's as unique as you are.
