Sit and Read

Sit and Read is both a retail store and gallery. Owner Kyle Garner carries unique vintage pieces and has recently launched a line of contemporary furnishings. The teak frame of the sofa below is designed by Ib Kofod-Larsen, and the cushions are upholstered in dead stock Hudson Bay blankets.

This chair was made by a company called Lensol-Wells and probably designed by partner Hobart Wells.This chair is a great character piece and  the previous owner took the time to strip it down to reveal the stunning textile underneath.
