New drinking chair

[BrewCommando]

The first piece of furniture for my 'Study' project in our new abode. This will be my drinking chair, specifically to enjoy a single malt - mainly Glenlivet 21, although I have a bottle of Glenlivet 15 on the go right now.

The chair and ottoman are from Restoration Hardware and the quality is outstanding. I read a lot of bad things about them online, but mainly from people complaining that they don't sell the same things as they used to. Being a relative newcomer to these shores (5 years in the USA) I'd never heard of them before a few weeks ago so have no preconceptions. The workmanship in this chair is quite impressive - built like a tank.

I'm searching for a bunch of other things including a desk, desk chair, side table and some lamps.

Anyone ever used a Roorkhee chair as a desk chair? I have a hankering for one of these: http://www.britishcampaignfurniture.com/products?id=11345

Nice chair and ottoman - just need a little side table to hold the drink and a reading lamp.

Wow, that brings back memories. My dad used to sit in a chair just like that.

Very comfy as I seem to remember. Hope you find some other cool stuff for your drinking corner

... and a crackling log fire, pokers on the hearth, a faithful spaniel curled up at your feet, the gentle patter of rain on the window...

...and a good book, a Cuban cigar with a snifter of Cognac!!!

Exactly my thoughts!

Nice chair. If you find a chair you love, you gotta build the room around it.

Well, I'd go with a Retriever, but I do like the cut of your jib. Don't forget the Hemingway.

That's a classic that will never go out of style.

Just looked up Restoration Hardware. Too rich for my poor arse. Very nice though.

Very nice indeed, I've always wanted one of those chairs. A few years back I saw a something similiar at a local Salvation Army store for a song ($150.00). To this day I still regret not buying it

The chair looks like an awesome start and with the above suggestions you can't go wrong.

I'll just say I hate you. Nice chair, smell of leather, hopefully, Glenlivet, relaxing, almost makes be want to take up smoking again but no 10 yrs. off of it. I can breathe now.

Awesome! Enjoy!!

all you need now is the perfect side table to set your glass and bottle on about as high as the chair arm
