Anyone know who sells those cut-away chairs you see used, usually backwards, and often for implied nude shots?

I thought I saw one for sale in a mag, but it was just a naff MDF square jobby, covered in photos of the original chair used.

In the style of:
John Lewis - Chrissy Chair, Birch (http://www.johnlewis.com/Furniture/Dining+Room+Furniture/Dining+Room+Furniture/Chairs/167/230176319/Product.aspx)

Based ona classic design (I think by Conran) in the sixties. Real thing will set you back a bit more.

Remember where to post the finished articles... ;)

I like the COnran one, just what i'm after, but quite pricey

Like this one - slightly less 'implied' though!

What you want is an Arne Jacobsen model 3107 chair, or a copy of it. This is the Profumo affair photograph of Christine Keeler.

Its apparantly the "most copied chair" in the world, so if you can find a cheap source, I may like to get one as well.

That's the one I was thinking of - good call :notworthy

Even Conran copied it!

Amputation's a bit harsh just because the chair has no cutouts... :D
