Utility are offering 10% off Kartell and Vitra at the moment; I purchased an Eames lounge chair from Vitra, saving £442.00 - and not only did I get a lovely surprise bar of chocolate but an Eames enamel fountain pen too! www.utilitydesign.co.uk

I love love love the shameless plugs and the withering replies - I would never be brave enough. Keep up the good work HE and others.
Griffo - waking up the children to laugh is an excellent idea. Next time...

Ummm...actually lurker susan apologised a long time ago for that post! Since then she has become a valued member of this forum and has also given big discounts to people who have bought her fantastic cushions.

If anyone's that desperate for an Eames lounger, there's a company called This is Furniture that's currently got an extra little shop on Tottenham Ct Rd that's selling white leather ones for less than £2k. They had a couple of those Panton chairs going cheap too and a few other bits and bobs. The shop's on the next block up from Heals/Habitat.
(and no, i don't work for them - just saw it as i was walking by the other day)

Lindsay, they are not all reproductions/fakes/copies. Vitra is the European licensed manufacturer of the Eames lounger and Herman Miller is the licensed manufacturer in America since 1956 when it was first issued.
