Don’t you just love one-of-a-kind statement chairs? A chair that is full of personality and uniqueness?:
I have to admit I was pretty excited when One Kings Lane contacted me last week to help introduce their new Decor Resource Center to my blog readers.

I have always loved the shape of this chair. According to the resource guide, my chair is similar to Renaissance Revival Chair, 1870.

Sometimes a room needs a chair as a finishing touch once everything is in place. Do you have any statement chairs in your home? Now is the time to search the internet or flea markets for a signature chair that can be reupholstered, repainted or restored to finish off the room!
PS I wanted to add a couple pictures of the whole fireplace that a reader requested. She wanted to see the whole thing. Here you go Terri!
