As we've been scouring for more gifts for perfectly difficult and discerning egos, we found another high-styled option for those who have -- or want -- everything. If The Isis is too Mensa for your mensch, these miniature designer chairs by Vitra are fit for the fine-wined and fashion-minded.
Love the Eero Aarnio Ball Chair (in bottom right of photo) or the Pesce Up 6 Mamma Chair (the red chair with ottoman in the center of the photo) but know there's little room for the life-size version? Most of the Vitra miniatures are 1:6 in scale, which makes them an ideal size for desktop conversation pieces or pedestal frou-frous.
For light-hearted and playful types, the chairs also make fab centerpieces for any Barbie 's Dream House
. Yes, 1:6 scale is Barbie scale. Ooh! Isn't that fantastic? Your collectible Barbies no longer have to lounge on fugly plasticrap.
One of our favorite sites, retromodern.com, has the best selection of Vitra miniature chairs, 67 at last count. Prices ranges from $125 to $725. Yes... Ouch! However, these aren't just collectibles, but works of art. We imagine there are a number of complete collections being displayed in architecture and design firms, or even in CEO offices, merely as status art.
