Anthropologie's embroidered chair is a exemplary piece of furniture with a natural narrative and a bold pink color scheme. The illustrations of the Imagined World Accent Chair feature organic motifs in a desert-like scenery — from curious flowers, to birds, dogs and goats. The design is extremely detail-oriented and successfully brings together the natural elements of earth, water and air, while mimicking primitive cave-like illustrations.
The embroidered chair is made out of linen upholstery with wool felt detail on the seating cushion. The frame boasts an Indian rosewood frame and medium colonial-finished legs. The chair easily translates itself and adds a quirk to any interior design — from modern to art deco movements. It is eye-catching in its essence due to its agreeable form, interesting illustrations and ultra vibrant color palette.
