Moon Armchair

Moonarmchair 
Judging by its name, the Moon Armchair was always going to be space-age design made from plastic.  What may come as a surprise is that this isn't a design from the 1960s, but a more recent creation by Hong Kong designer Mike To.

The chair is made from moulded glass-fibre with a high-gloss finish and is available in a choice of colours; orange, black, red, white or bronze.  The chairs normally cost £839 (or £889 for the bronze version), but are available at the reduced price of £439 (£469 in bronze).

Buy the chairs at Fashion 4 Home.

It has been designed and made in Italy, but the patterns are very much in the Scandinavian folk art style. The set comprises of six of each of side plates, dinner plates and soup bowls.  Its quite a big purchase, costing £245 for the set, but less hassle than individually picking out pieces here and there.  Serving platters are also available in two sizes, priced £45 and £65.
