Fancy is back

Chris Gigley -- Casual Living, 9/10/2010 5:12:09 AM

CONSUMER TASTES tend to skew conservative in times of economic tension, which explains the predominance of relatively streamlined designs in the past three years. In that case, these new chairs with intricate back designs may collectively be a sign of loosening tensions and good things to come.

Palm Springs Rattan & Garden Classics' Savannah Dining Collection combines traditional elegance with modern durability. The 100% aluminum frames are hand-cast and welded before being hand-finished in a multi-step process. Booth 8-4049
	The Veracruz Chaise is one of Three Coins Castings' newest designs of custom-made solid cast aluminum furniture. Booth 8-4042
Flowing curves accentuate the robust construction of this relaxing Perugia Dining Chair, a new launch for 2011 from Hansen. The collection also features tables with matching accents other seating pieces. Booth 8-9058
	The Edmonton Collection from Paragon Casual is available in full dining and lounging groups. Booth 8-4077
