Win 4 original Bentwood chairs in your choice of colour plus table linen

Wow! Wow! I would love the four white Bentwoods ( my all time favourite chairs) to replace the chairs we still have from when we first moved into our first house over 18 years ago! They are primed, well some are, and have yet to be finished. Our current chairs are so tall through the bad it takes up so much visual space from our country kitchen. I’d pick any of the blue and white range from the table as the patterns are perfect!

What a fantastic competition, i would stay classic & choose the black bentwood cafe chairs with a gold trellis table cloth from the glamorous collection. My husband & I renovating an old Edwardian house, some new chairs &’a table cloth would really make our day ! X

Post reno ready to decorate and style our new kitchen! Indian summer linen sounds like the perfect addition to our home. Bentwood chairs in mixed colours for a pop of fun. Bring on Summer in Sydney!

id love to win the white ……. having purple and white theme for xmas day

What a fantastic competition Jen.
I would choose a monochrome set of Bentwood Chairs – Grey, Light Grey, Black and White – to surround my black table. I would pair with bright Rommani Indigo napkins and Zahra Orange tablecloth.
I just bought an apartment and at age 29 it is the first time I have lived without share house mates (26 house mates over 12 long years!). I am relishing the opportunity to surround myself with the kinds of lovely and special things you wouldn’t risk having in a share house. I no longer have to just bookmark all my favourite posts of yours – I can now put them into action, and lovely bentwood chairs and pop of colour napery would be a great way to start!

Loving jade greens and turquoise blues this summer, so couldn’t go past the Aqua Blue A18 Michael Thonet Bentwood Dining Chair to lighten up our dining setting (to replace the heavy, dark Chinese elm chairs we currently have) and the Indian Summer napkins in Asha Kelly Green would contrast beautifully with the blue! And a splash of metallics would set it all off nicely so would have to go with the adorable gold confetti table cloth, cute! This would be an awesome Christmas present for me before I give birth to my second Christmas baby in a few weeks!! x

Wow, great giveaway! We’re just coming to the end of a hectic renovation that included so many unforeseen variations – $7000 sewer main anyone!!! – we’re flat broke and can’t afford to buy any of the fun things. Black Thonet 18’s with natural socks were definitely on the list and the deco style Silver Trellis tablecloth would go a long way to hiding a table that needs updating!

Our Christmas will be spent enjoying the new reno and waiting for the arrival of bub #3, due any day around the festive season. Good luck everyone and Merry Christmas!

This competition is absolutely amazing and would be the perfect Christmas present for my young family.

The competition could not have come at a better time for my family. I purchased a white tulip table today so that we can finally have our first meal together as a family on Christmas day. My 15 month old (boy/girl twins) have been eating at their high chairs which they have outgrown and my 3 year old moves between the breakfast bar and lounge while my husband and i are running between the 3 kids to get them fed. It will be great to finally have somewhere for our family to go to to eat. The Thonet Bentwood chairs would be the perfect accompaniment to the table. The linen will look amazing too

My home is full of fun and colour so i would choose chairs and linen to suit our energetic young family
I cannot go past the Thonet 18 Bentwood Chairs in
Aqua Blue
PInk Original
Lemon Yellow
Apple Green
The gorgeous GOLD CONFETTI tablecloth and MARRAKECH HOT PINK napkins will be amazing for Christmas and every other day!!

OOOOO we have JUST ordered a custom made dining table to be delivered in time for chrissy. One side will have a custom made bench seat and the other side we NEED four new chairs to finish off the look and I have been eyeing off the replica and “fake’ bentwoods to finish off our vision. To win REAL bentwoods would be an amazing Christmas miracle. Our Table is dark stain table top with deep red legs.

I would chose the Gold confetti table cloth, from the glamorous range from the gorgeous Keren and for the chairs I would chose, well I don’t know for sure but either the aqua, beetroot or red. It would all depend on the finished colour of the leg of the table / bench chairs before I decided on colour. I want vibrancy and modern with an industrial edge.

p.s. WICKED giveaway

Oh my! Ketana navy linen, white bentwood chairs with timber legs. Divine! Would make my dining table look lovely! Yes please!!

Such gorgeous chairs and linens. Thank you for the opportunity to have a chance at having them ourselves!
Although these are all beautiful, the black Brentwood chairs and navy Zahra napkins would be my first loves. I would choose the black chairs because they match the black legs of a new (to us) table we just purchased for the kitchen. I love the Indian Summer collection- I went to India last Christmas and I had really looked forward to it for a long time as I love the music, colors and textures of India but unfortunately it got cut short b/c my younger brother became sick back in the US (thankfully recovered fully) so I didn’t have as much time for shopping as I intended to there! I did go to the charming Anokhi textile museum-I recommend for all people who love colors, decorating, texture and an appreciation for detail.

I have a really small house with room only for some key pieces. To add interest and change it up I bring in colour and pattern. That way I never get bored! For me four white bentwood chairs , Ashea navy tablecloth and Zahra orange napkins would give me a fantastic pop and focal point!

What a wonderful comp! Thank you IA. Hmmm….decisions decisions… Hard to go past Bentwood chairs – with socks. Socks! Two in white and two in black would be lovely. And then to funk it up a bit, I would love to throw a happy yellow Rommani tablecloth across the table and dress with Hot Pink Marrakech napkins. Too too pretty.

Firstly thank you for that divine fantasy shopping spree! I’m going to go wild and choose 1 Bentwood in each lemon yellow, green apple, aqua blue and pink original. I’m going to pair that loveliness with the gold confetti tablecloth and the pink bow napkins.
If you can’t beat it join it & with two tiny terrorists filling my dining room daily with lego land mines I may as well join the colour crusade. Darren Palmer always says you start with the floor & surely nothing goes better with indescribably foot torturing plastic toys than refreshing gelato coloured Bentwoods!

The Original White Michael Thonet Bentwood Chair and the Ketana Orange napkin is the perfect combo for our boring beige unit!

Wow – what a prize! I can picture glossy walnut Thonets teamed with the Indigo Rommani tablecloth and bright Emerald Marrakesh napkins. Simple white crockery, ornately vintage silverware and big hammered silver bowls filled with pomegranates and figs. Lots and LOTS of candles and lanterns of varying sizes flanked by sapphire glasses filled with Turkish coffee. Sigh!

Two Bentwood’s in blue, yes that would do.
But add two more in white, to make it right.
Then if I’m able, to put on the table
The “Ketana” in navy would just be the gravy,
And to finish Christmas lunch, I’d take the pick of the bunch
The “Asha” orange napkin, to wipe up my chin.
A Christmas feast for the belly and one for the eyes.
Oh that would be the best Christmas surprise!

White and wood, how can you go wrong. About to move into my new house and totally revamp it to be classic, modern, touch of scandi design and a bit eclectic – yes I do love mixing my styles. These chairs are AMAZEBALLS and matched with the silver spot designed tablecloth would be relaxing, dreamy and totally charming for any time of year. Love love love!!!

I’ve been heading down the neutrals road for a little while now and I’m craving a pop of colour to spice things up. I’d go 4 chairs in red because at the end of the day I like things to match. As for table linen, surprise me, as a caterer and stylist of high teas I’m always on the lookout for something new and pretty to glam the table up. I will be over the moon if I win, thanks for the chance. Ali

Little hands in this house, so grey for the chairs. Plus it’s a stylish colour that goes with anything Then a pop of colour with the Asha navy cloth and then napkins in Zahra orange and Kelly green. Time to set the table and get cooking!

A pink chair, a red chair, a yellow and a blue,
It was so hard to choose, I will have to buy another 2!
The tablecloth was easy, Gold Confetti is a must!
Anything sparkly and shiny is pure utter lust!
Now the napkins were tricky, to match or to clash?
I would buy them all if I had enough cash!
The Morocco collection won this time around,
Emerald, indigo, yellow & hot pink on my table will be found!
I would love to win this most amazing giveaway,
Adding so much colour and happiness to my home would brighten my day!

Simple, yet elegant… It would have to be the classic white Brentwood’s matched with the stunning Glamorous Gold Trellis table dressing… Just perfect!

Beautiful chairs – my next upgrade in my home is dining chairs and this would be the perfect start to a collection of 6. The cloth napkins are lovely, a perfect way to refresh a dining setting.

How fabulous – my all time favourite chair in black paired with the gorgeous Gold Confetti tablecloth and the Gold Trellis napkins. I can’t tell you how wonderful that dining experience would be for my family for Christmas this year.
Thank you for the opportunity to see this in my mind’s eye already!

I have a table that my husband made me, I remember saying to him “If we build it they will come!” And they did. Our table is surrounded by a collection of memories. Each chair is from some one or some where special. Two from my grandmothers old setting circa 1940 beautiful arched back turned legs. Two are a rather industrial pair my father in-law nabbed from an old pub in Melbourne before it was refurbed circa 1950’s, one is a Op shop find from our pre kids days and one is an antique from my husbands great grandmother. All in all a total mixed bag of colours, shapes, eras and memories. I’d be thrilled to add a new chapter to the table, I love nothing better than a mixed bag of colours! Pink, Grey,Blue Green! Tee it up with the adorable polka dot table cloth and blue print napkins. I can just see it with my newly acquired brass cutlery set a wedding gift of my parents passed onto me. Bliss! x Merry Christmas!

What a wonderful Christmas gift (that I would pass on to my daughter who is leaving home and setting up her first home). I would choose the White Bentwood chair with timber socks, the Silver confetti table cloth and matching napkins. This look can be so classy and romantic, and also be used to pop with coloured accessories for a different look time after time. Just love it!

This is an amazing Giveaway, a brilliant chance to incorporate great design and comfort into a home. I would love two of the Grey Original Brentwood chairs to complete my home office, and one each of the white with natural socks and black with natural socks for each of my bedrooms. They will match in with my monochrome colour scheme perfectly. To brighten up my dining room this Christmas I would choose Zahra Red Napkins to go with the Silver Trellis Tablecloth. I am most grateful for your blog and the introduction of many wonderful companies, for which I wouldn’t have found as quickly.

I love the Original White Bentwood Chairs with the natural white socks, these would go perfectly with our antique wooden kitchen table which has been handed down from my grandparents. I can’t stop drooling over the Gold Confetti tablecloth and Gold Trellis Napkins. This would complete my dream table setting look and add a modern twist to our Christmas this year – cheers to that 🙂

Ohh fantastic!!! I’ve just finished a four year design course and am taking my first steps into the world, including an internship interview just this morning with Country Style home living magazine! The whole experience is daunting and exciting but it makes me think of expressing myself in my future home as I transition from the student apartment to a fresh canvas! I adore Danish interior design and think the Bentwood chairs in Light Grey, Silver Trellis napkins and Silver Confetti tablecloth would be the perfect starting pieces to set off my dark timber floors and white walls – which I can only dream of now but will endeavour to make my own!
Thank you so much for this wonderful opportunity Interiors Addict,
Much love, Lou x

I inherited a white bentwood chair from my grandmother who passed away forty years ago. I loved the connection it gave me to my grandmother and also to my now deceased father who guided me in the restoration of the chair. Unfortunatley it was recently stolen from my front verandah (in a quiet cul-de-sac!). I grieve for it’s loss and what that chair represented. I would love to own another white bentwood chair(s) – even though they won’t have the same emotional connection- they will still bring a warmth to my home in memory of my grandmother.
The tablecloths and napkins are all gorgeous but my choice would be a gold confetti tablecloth (180 x 400) with gold trellis napkins — a classy combination for Christmas.

Merry Christmas!

OH. MY. GOODNESS. I have died and gone to Bentwood heaven.

Fingers, toes and eyes crossed xo

I would LOVE some gorgeous red bentwood chairs! I’ve been in love with Bentwood chairs since I was a kid, and have a few old rickety ones but Id love these funky colourful ones and have a new outdoor space that needs some attention starting with table and chairs! Id love blue or grey linen to compliment the red the chairs, but Id be rapt to win anything!!

As I write this I am sitting on my favourite dark mahogany Bentwood Chair , found in a funny second hand store on Queen Street. My love affair begun a while ago but has really been cemented by the time I spend on this chair at my desk.

Coupled with my Nannas beautifull old dressing table that doubles as my desk and my Imac it really is a suite of truly inspired design.

I would love more ‘original’ Thonet Bentwood Chairs in White with the Natural Socks to replace my ‘replica’ white Eames DCW chairs- Champagne taste on a beer budget unfortunately led me to chose these ! However with a family of 2 young boys I needed a chair to stand the test of time without breaking the bank. I think the Bentwood Chairs would satisfy this brief very well and with elegant simplicity.

I would probably have to splash out on the Le Corbusier B9 Armchairs with Natural Socks if I won , to complement the chairs. With a name like that , and such an incredibly sensual shape, how could I not ?

For the table setting I would chose the Silver Trellis tablecloth – Again elegantly simple with a glamorous art deco theme that would be a subtle addition to the table and could be used for any occasion that required that extra special table dressing. It would perfectly complement my living and dining room that are decorated in a style that is a smattering of contemporary and mid-century furniture.

For the napkins I would chose the Marrakech Yellow as I do like to contrast colours and it would provide a fresh burst of colour, suitable for any celebration.

Thankyou Jen for introducing me to these two websites !

Christmas is coming! I cannot believe how fast the year has gone. In January this year we found our dream dining table. We have “borrowed” one for the last 5 years when we moved in as newly weds. I said to husband (back in January) wouldn’t new curtains look great with the new dinning table (The table would be in front of a window). Husband said, if we change the curtains we should also repaint. I said, if we repaint we should redo the kitchen tiles (The space is dinning and kitchen combined). Then husband said, if we redo the tiles we should do the kitchen benchtops. So That’s how one conversation led to the start of my kitchen renovations all because of one table. That said table is still not brought. The said renovations are slowly (oh so slowly) moving along. The table is still our dream table, I have been dreaming of beautiful Vienna Bentwood Chairs to go with it, I am a lover of yellow so I would have to go with the Lemon Yellow A18 chairs. The Gold Confetti is the table cloth is what t I would love to see on my table. The napkins would be Rommani Yellow, to go with the chairs of course!
Thank you Jen for a great Christmas competition.

oooh I would have to pick the black Bentwood chairs with “natural socks”, the Ketana Navy tablecloth and Zahra Navy napkins. Would love to win this prize as I am currently fitting out my first home with my partner and we have had to start from scratch, buying everything from a dustpan to couch. Trying to slowly accumulate furniture that will last a while, being thoughtful for our first set of everything by purchasing classics or modern classics. Would love the opportunity to own these beautiful items that we would probably own for a lifetime.

I’m dreaming of summer days spent with great friends sitting on our new White Brentwood chairs around our beautifully set table. Everyone commenting on my new Kelly Green Zahra tablecloth and Navy Asha napkins. The afternoon is filled with great food, glasses of bubbles and laughter!!! Hope my DREAMS come true.

What a fun idea! – I love playing pretend interior designer and dreaming up my ideal home. Having moved from NYC to Sydney to be with my long distance boyfriend, I really struggle not having been able to bring any of my own furniture to help create a space that feels like ours, and not just his – aka bachelor pad. Our place desperately needs color and the warmth that only a girlfriend’s touch (and an internet furniture competition) can bring. As a newbie to this country, I love throwing dinner parties for new friends, and what better way to host a dinner party than with colorful chairs and linens! I hope you like my selection, and that you’ll help me bring some color to my new home, so that I can truly feel like it’s my home, as much as it is his.

For the chairs, I would definitely go with 4 of the Light Grey Original Brentwood Chair, I think they would look gorgeous with a scandinavian/lucite dining room table. And I’d opt to tie in the color through the Silver Trelis table cloth and further compliment it with the Hot Pink Marrakech napkins. By sticking to mostly the same color palette – I’m going for the clean and simple look, with the color coming from the food, setting the meal up as the hero within the room.

Thanks for the introduction to these sites – and for constantly educating and opening my mind as to the wonders of interior design and the potential of my new home.

The classic bentwood is my all time favourite chair. It reminds me of growing up with my little cousin (who is now taller than me) and sitting around her dinner table on bentwoods with the sort of straw/hash seats that eventually wore away after so many years of meals and family parties. Being my fave chair, I’m actually not too fussy at all and would just be grateful for the fabulous prize. In saying this however, one can never go past classic white. It fits any decor and any themed dinner party. Being Christmas, I would go the Gold Trellis table cloth with the Asha Red napkins from the Indian Summer range. They look like snowflakes and tie in nicely with the Christmas theme. I would complete the look with homemade pine wreaths around thick candles – a nice, red, white, green and gold Christmas table.

On that note, Merry Christmas Jen and all at TIA x

What an amazing oportunity!

I have been coveting Thonet Bentwood chairs for years, to go around my antique extendable Chiswell dining table, which I will be seating 14 for christmas lunch. Planning has already begun for what we are calling the Flavour Mansion Christmas lunch, it’s going to be delightfully spectacular!!

I would choose my chairs to all be light gray, with just 1 Apple Green to counter balance and give an assymetrical finish and emphasis. For the tablecloth I would use Romani Yellow and silver confetti napkins.

I should win because it would really be the emphatic touch to really make the event that much more photogenic!!

Thanks for the ongoing inspiration Jen!!

Desperate for the black Thonet Designed Vienna 18 Bentwood Chair w Natural Socks.
LOVE the Marrakech Indigo tablecloth and can’t decide whether I like the Asha orange or the Marrakech Yellow napkins with it more. Maybe the yellow? It’s tough.
Our current table and chairs were donated to us by my BF’s grandparents. Which was so sweet, and we couldn’t afford to fully furnish so we were very grateful – but, let’s be honest. They’re hideous. New chairs and a table cloth to cover the table with couldn’t make me happier.
Pretty sure those chairs were made for me. They’re on my wish-list regardless. (Fingers crossed!) Thanks!

An Indian Summer is what my daughter will be having for Christmas, so in honour of her, I would love the Indian Summer tablecloth in the vibrant, graphic Asha Red with the smaller patterned Zahra Red napkins. My great grandmother’s lyre back dining chairs are slowly becoming another “project” for me to restore in my shed (already groaning under the weight of other similar projects and treasures), so the classic lines of the Original Bentwood Vienna 18 Chair with the embossed sunset seat in walnut, would marry perfectly with the roadside finds and family treasures.
As the cicadas chorus merrily in our perpetual Christmas tree (an enormous Norfolk Pine planted over 50 years ago), I hope we’ll be sitting down on our bentwood chair classics to a fabulous champagne breakfast with crisp white crockery, and sparkling silver cutlery, contrasting dramatically with the vibrant red napery. A Merry Christmas, indeed!

With our brand new long-awaited kitchen being installed today, and the plan to order Bentwoods for our new 3m long table, I would LOVE the Black Bentwood with natural socks to break up the mix! Our Tretchikoff wall mural would also contrast beautifully with the Indian Summer Ketana Navy 180 x 400 tablecloth, and the Indian Summer Zahra navy 45 x 45 napkins. I love it when a plan comes together! Good luck to all!

I would love four white Bentwoods to go around our gorgeous old oak table in our farmhouse. It was my great-grandparents table and came with them on the boat from Ireland. I’d love the white Bentwoods to not take away from the beautiful wood, and we have a lot of white + wood accents in our home. My kitchen has a lot of classic blue and white so I would love the zahra navy tablecloth with the asha navy napkins. My new years resolution is to have more people over for raucous dinner parties – this would be perfect!

This is a very exciting competition! Love the chic Bentwood chairs.
Firstly the reason why I would love to win these chairs is because I currently do now own any. My fiance & I’s first home is still being built, so we are yet to purchase any & truthfully probably couldn’t afford such amazing dining chairs. The colours I would choose is 2 yellow & 2 pink vienna chairs because frankly who could go past those pretty pink flamingos & the alternating colours would be a stand out feature. Yellow just screams summer to me as well. The table cloth & runner I would choose would be the Silver Trellis, both matching to pull in the overall scheme of it all.
Good luck everyone!!

Divine comp thank you Jen! My dream combination would be the black Thonet designed vienna 18 Bentwood chairs with natural socks, the Asha tablecloth in navy, and 4 different coloured napkins, also from the Asha range in green, red, pink and orange. Please pick me! I have 2 kids under 3 and making our unrenovated home a place of beauty, order and harmony is such a rare thing. If I had these goodies I’d have no choice but to hold a little dinner party or 2! X

Oh wow awesome competition! I would have to say 4x the Black B9 Le Corbusier Bentwood Arm chairs, a Rommani Yellow table cloth and Rommani Indigo napkins!

I love bentwood chairs and would love to give this prize to my mum. I have been helping her set up her new home and we have been looking at bentwood chairs, and stools, for her open plan living dining area. My mum loves the bentwood chairs and has be lusting after them for decades. I grew up with Thonet dining chairs (cafe style, not the bentwood ones) and over the years each of the chairs were dispersed between my house, my mums and my sisters. I have the last one, and am somewhat regretful that our family set was split up. So I treasure the one I have left. I would love to help my mum with a new set of bentwood chairs and would choose the white sock style with a white linen napkin set however I would leave the colour choice up to her. She loves colour and may choose to go with mis-matched colour chairs and linen. thanks for organising such a great completion and prize and good luck to everyone who enters!

Hi Jen, what a gorgeous prize for the festive season and beyond- for a busy family that desperately needs these Bentwood chairs, and gorgeous tablecloth and napkins from The Brown Trading Co! The table is the heart of our home, where we eat, talk and get together and a space we value. Our family has had a lot of fun and good natured arguing 🙂 deciding on what we like and this entry is a contribution from us all as to the combination and choice we agreed on for this awesome competition to come our with our ideal chair napkin combination. We all love colour and pop and our current crop of mismatched, uncoordinated and very rickety dining chairs are really tired on their way our ( not too mention dangerous when we have friends and guests over – I am always worried they may collapse at any moment !) – we have the colour but not the style that these classic Bentwood chairs would add to a very high use area of our home which is part indoor leading to a small outdoor space and backyard. My 9 year old daughter has chosen the Pink Original Bentwood, my 12 year old son liked the red or the Aqua Blue Bentwood, I loved the lemon yellow and my husband liked the light grey. We really loved all the Napkins patterns but our final decision was the Marrakech Emerald napkins with the Ketana Orange Indian Summer Tablecloth. Yes it is a rainbow of colour of choice for us, but we would never tire of eating at our table, siting on our Bentwood and using the lovely napkins and tablecloth ( to cover our old table) for all celebrations, birthdays, dinners and everyday really. It would be especially welcoming and bright during Winter when everyone wants some colour. I almost really wouldn’t mind the washing and ironing of the linen for the joy everyone would get dressing the table and using the linen for every special celebration. Practical, stylish, fun and uplifiting, it would be a great Christmas present for our whole family to enjoy this lovely prize and beyond Christmas for every time we sat down at the table and enjoyed the colour and design around us. Thanks Jen, The Rogers Family.

Without blue Bentwoods in our mostly white kitchen, we don’t have a leg to stand on in the decoration stakes but with them, we’d have 4 legs to sit on. (Go on, it’s lame but you know you want to crack a smile.) Matching navy table linen would be perfect.

Hi Jen & Co,
We are looking to buy our first home so I try and restrain myself from purchasing big ticket items until I know what style of house we are going to be in. Irrespective of the house, classic Bentwood chairs would be the perfect addition! I would have to go for the gorgeous light grey – I am dreaming of a built in bench seat on the other side!
I am styling a girls Christmas lunch and the silver confetti tablecloth would be a dream, as would the Zahra Kelly Green napkins.
I have champagne taste on a beer budget… So it would be wonderful to get lucky with this wonderful competition.
Thanks,
Sally

I think I would have to go navy for the chairs and the Rommani Indigo, Indian Summer for the linen! Gorgeous and so very excited if I were to win. Chairs would go perfectly with the one I picked up from the side of the road.

I love a true Bentwood, for all that it is
The curves and the framework, they’ll outlast the kids!
The colours are bright and gorgeous and fun
With contrasting socks for a set or just one
I would mix and match to suit the day’s mood
Or pick just one colour, I don’t want to be rude
To have the originals, now that would be bliss
For many it’s fakes but I’ll take a miss
In Europe they’re made all glossy with shine
Hand-steamed I believe to make them look fine
So the colour to choose, an impossible task
The red, pink & blue are sure to run fast
The classic of choice is the one I would choose
White with small socks you just could not lose!
Now napery is next from The Brown Trading Co
Everything’s beautiful, put it all out on show
What a gift it would be to win these great Christmas treats
The tablecloth, napkins and those beautiful seats.

Having just recently renovated our home and hosting our family Christmas Day lunch for the very first time, I would be over the moon to win this competition. We recently bought a dining room table but haven’t yet purchased chairs. Thonet Bentwoods would be my dream!
So my picks would be…
* 4 white Thonet Bentwoods in white with Natural ‘feet,
* Zahra Kelly Green Tablecloth 180×300
* Asha Red Napkin 45×45
Such a gorgeous table set-up might help take a bit of the pressure off hosting Christmas lunch! Cheers to that!

Hi Jen, my entry is all about LOVE. I love Bentwood chairs!! Not quite the same way you love your brand new hubby but as it’s actually my Wedding Anniversary (!), I thought I’d make the comparison 🙂 So I am feeling lucky today… Lucky enough to win this prize I really, truly, ruly hope!

It would be the perfect Anniversary gift because now we have become a family of four: – me, hubby, son and daughter. So we could have one chair each (Original white with Natural Socks pretty please), a napkin for each of us in a different colour in the Zahra range (Navy for hubby, Red for me, Orange for son and Pink for daughter) with the gorgeous Zahra Kelly Green tablecloth. What an explosion of festive colour we can celebrate our Anniversary and Christmas with for years to come!!

I am embarrassed to say that we finished our renovation two years ago, almost to the day – and I still don’t have decent dining chairs or kitchen bench stools for that matter. So if I win the chairs, I have promised myself a little pressie too – I am going to buy the matching Bentwood stools!! Aaaargh so excited at the thought of it all!! Although it’s taken two years, my chairs and stools would be sorted – totally worth the wait!!!

Thank you Jen, RelaxHouse and The Brown Trading Co – good luck to all 🙂

PS. I’ve been following you for a while now and this is your best competition yet!!!!

Where do I start?! I have always wanted these beautiful chairs…..something my fiancé doesn’t quite understand! We bought a beautiful big blackwood dining table last year but since then we have bought a new home, been planning (and paying for!) a wedding and raising to young boys so we haven’t had the budget. And sadly this means we are still using our old suede, food covered, dining chairs we bought 9 years ago from Fantastic Furniture!
For this reason I would LOVE 4 black bentwoods (they will fit in to our new home perfectly when we start renovating next year!) and I would choose a very happy and bright yellow Marrakech tablecloth with Rommani Indigo Napkins!
If I won I would probably take them all with me to my wedding on New Years Eve!! Wouldn’t it be great signing the registry while sitting on an ORIGINAL bentwood chair!

Mismatched chairs all the way!!! Lemon yellow, apple green, aqua blue and pink chairs for me. I love lively dining spaces, they SHOULD be fun and colourful! But at the same time, so many dining tables would look gorgeous with classic yet colourful chairs. Since I’ve already splashed colour around, I’d choose the Marrakech Yellow table cloth and Asha Pink napkins. No half measures here!

This competition must be fate, as I have been lusting over the beautiful original bentwood chairs (Grey A18) for our kitchen meals area which is being installed next week! Not only would this be the perfect finishing touch to our new build but the glamorous Gold Trellis napkins would really bring our birch timber table top to life. To win these would truly make my year! x

delicious candy colours to bring a smile to the biggest ebenezer scrooge at christmas time! pink and green, oh and blue & yellow!

Thanks for hosting such a wonderful giveaway! I have always really loved the Bentwood chair design. My dream would be to have the Michael Thonet Designer No 18 Bentwood Chairs paired with Gold Confetti table linen and Gold Trellis napkins. We are newlyweds setting up our new home and would love to inject some beautiful signature pieces of furniture into our new home. We currently sit on second-hand IKEA chairs we got from eBay, so not much style or personality there… so all our fingers crossed! x

Oh, I would love four original white Michael Thonet bentwood chairs, Rommani Emerald Green table cloth and Zhara Kelly Green napkins! A splash of green on the table at Christmas lunch and white Bentwood chairs would give our 1920s farmhouse a fantastic lift – it would be a Christmas to remember!

Oh these are incredible!

I’d choose pink, yellow, blue and green with white linen. A chair for each member of the family, and so bright and fun!

I love the light grey, white, grey & black bentwoods! AH-MAY-ZING! and the silver confetti tablecloth & napkins.
I’d love them this Xmas as my husband & I are just starting to decorate our home after living with second-hand furniture for the last two years when we first got married…

Absolutely love the Bentwood Armchair Black w Natural Socks with a Asha Kelly Green table cloth and a touch of yellow Marrakech Napkins to set the christmas table and brighten the day! With a large family on christmas day, we struggle like musical chairs to find a seat! This would be the perfect addition to complete our home!

Wow what gorgeous bentwood chairs and table linen. I would love couple chairs in white and a couple in green apple (to match my kitchenaid). The silver trellis would be great for Christmas setting with pops of green on the table too. We’ve just moved into our forever home where we plan to make many memories with our kids

If I could chose it would be the Original Bentwood No 10 chair, paired with the Silver trellis table cloth and the Zahara Navy napkins.

I have been dreaming of a hot pink and silver collaboration of colour for my Christmas table setting and can already visualise the pink Bentwood chairs around my dining table dressed in a stunning Silver Trellis tablecloth and accessorised with Silver Confetti napkins. I would roll up the napkins into “bon-bons” with a gift inside for my guests and tied at each end with a hot pink ribbon.To finish off the look I would spray paint a collection of pinecones and gumnuts in hot pink and silver and arrange them in a large antique silver bowl in the centre of the table. I would serve pink strawberry punch in tall cut-glass crystal glasses with the rims dipped in silver edible glitter………I have heaps more ideas up my sleeve like these ones and would be happy to share them with you if I win!

4 x classic black chairs and Zahra pink tableware. Eclectic but that’s my style.

The Michel Thonet No 18 chairs are stylish, sleek and sophisticated, combined with the funky fun Marrakesh Yellow Linen would be great!

Beautiful competition…
Light grey Bentwood chairs, silver confetti tablecloth and napkins…perfect for Christmas and perfect for my girls birthday parties…in fact any excuse will do-everyday perfect!

Amazing!
I would love a combination of the black & white Bentwood chairs, with natural socks. I love this touch of natural timber, which would tie back in perfectly with my slightly distressed dining table!
Combine this with the Rommani Indigo tablecloth (who doesn’t love Indigo) & the Silver confetti napkins for fun, would love to win!

3 light grey and one hot pink chair to go with my heavy dark brown wooden dining table- the dining table I grew up with – doing my drawing home wrk and dinner at. The modern but classic chairs in that combo would lighten the table, making it fit with my white washed oak floor boards and 80’s designed house….and I could move the pink chair into my bedroom too! The silver confetti napkins are fun yet sophisticated and would tie in with the grey chairs, and the Asha pink tablecloth is colorful and gorgeous and I just LOVE it! x

Oh to have some Bentwood chairs in my house and in any colour – not fussy – to join our other character filled, rickety chairs – which I’ve threatened to dispose of over the past several years!

And with family finally joining us for a change, for Christmas, these chairs would be a very welcome and very attractive addition to our eclectic mix of furniture.

Finger’s are crossed! X

Two black Brentwoods and two red Brentwood chairs please and the same black and red scheme with the table setting.
Opposing settings of 2 black dinner settings and two red with gorgeous silverware and stunning glasses.
Top it all off with a pop of white and or grey as the table centre piece brings the eye to the beauty of the table.

This is just such a lovely and wonderful competition. Thanks Jen and RelaxHouse and The Brown Trading Co. for the opportunity! There are some great stories and really deserving people already but thought I would give it a shot! I would love to win two of the Bentwood chairs in Aqua Blue and two in Lemon Yellow. These colours match the Swedish Flag very well and I think would look lovely around a vintage white oak dining table (one day!). I always think good and happy thoughts with these colours:) Can never be sad sitting on a Bentwood Chair. For extra pops of colour on the table I thought the Zahra Red tabelcloth and the Ketana Navy napkins. Can never go wrong with a bit of red and blue and white!

thes chairs bring back such happy memories of my long ago childhood. In my Grandmothers kitchen, with the smell of her scones baking in the wood stove.

The scene is set,
the Christmas table laid.
Glamorous gold trellis table cloth

Lunch at OUR place
for the Very First Time.
Ham, Christmas crackers and table sublime,
won maybe with this little rhyme…

This week Im about to finish a huge part of my studies as an Interior Designer. For the past 2 years I have sat at my desk on my rickety 90 year old Brentwood, wondering whether it will hold me up for much longer. Would be a really ace way to celebrate my hard work 😉 Thanks Jen

I actually used to own 2 of these bentwood chairs back in the eighties, inherited from my nana, and I painted them LAVENDER….to go with an old farmhouse table I painted TURQUOISE?!! Clearly I was ahead of my time maybe?! (lots of vintage china….) These days…I am a little more sedate. Definitely LOVING the dramatic black with natural ‘socks’ and would team them with a silver confetti tablecloth with Zahra orange napkins and pop some peace lillies in the middle of the table, with the champers!!

I’d love the four chairs to be different colours – 1 Aqua Blue, 1 Pink original, 1 lemon yellow and 1 light grey – I love the ecclectic look of the unmatched pieces and it would make a great feature of them. I’d also choose the Ketana Orange tablecloth (180×400), plus Zahra Navy napkins – Navy goes with anything!

Funnily enough I was swooning/dreaming over some bentwood chairs earlier today…then came across this comp just now! …Destiny…I think so!! Love, love the classic black or white bentwoods with the timber ‘socks’ and the gold trellis cloth & napkins. Match in perfectly with my Christmas theme & my home for that matter!
Cheers!

I’ve just bought an apartment in Brisbane and I’m moving up from Melbourne so I’m basically starting afresh! I plan on buying an Eero Saarinen marble tulip table and I’d love to have 4 bentwood chairs for it. I’d love 4 grey chairs and the Asha Kelly green tablecloth. To mix it up I’d like the Zahra Navy napkins 🙂

I would pick the Original Vienna 18 Bentwood Dining Chair w Seat Pad, the Asha Red 45 x 45 placemat and the Asha Orange 150 x 250, we would love to have a gorgeous new setting like this in our house as we have only ever had hand-me-downs.

Just looking at these chairs make me want that French cafe look. Walnut Bentwood Chairs, Zahra Red tablecloth with matching napkins for that classic old wood and red, for that real coffee and croissants feel. Merci!

A person who has a love for design and interiors has always envisaged four Thonet Designed A18 Lemon Yellow Vienna Bentwood Chairs around my round impeccably set table. The table featuring the Morocco Rommani Indigo table cloth & the Glamorous Silver Trellis Napkins.

Unfortunately this has not yet come to fruition, I live with my partner and like many young couples we face the challenges of rental apartment living in Sydney. With a well worn combined kitchen & dinning area injecting the room with a splash of Lemon Yellow, and the Rommani Indigo I feel these colour hues would whisk me away.

No longer do I hear the babies cry through the walls, or the children play loudly on the gym equipment in the childcare centre next door. The repeating geometric pattern compliments the setting & creates a fresh feel. I can now enjoy a chic & art deco kitchen & dining room, with the perfect balance of classic & contemporary.

I have three words for you; black, indigo, natural wood. Ok that’s four words but you get the idea. The combination of these elements really puts some bang in my bonbon. I’m picturing my dining table surrounded by black bentwood chairs with natural socks, the Rommani table cloth in indigo and matching napkins. Ooooh yeah!

I would absolutely adore and cherish the gorgeous original white bentwood chairs, and the Asha Red napkins and tablecloth would be so perfectly festive for Christmas 🙂
I deserve to win because several Christmases ago a particularly portly relative of ours ate a bit too much Christmas lunch and one of my favourite chairs was left without a leg to stand on… literally! We now have a hodgepodge of dining chairs and I have OCD – odd chair dilemma!

Black chairs with the natural socks combined with the Asha Orange tablecloth and Asha Kelly Green napkins would make for a bright fun look for sure! And I’d love to spread the Christmas cheer this year by gifting the Bentwood chairs and table linen to my gorgeous parents to say thanks for everything they’ve done for me. A special prize like this definitely deserves to go to the special people in my life 🙂 thanks so much for the chance!

I would absolutely adore white bentwood chairs, teamed with a beautiful clash of prints with the gold confetti tablecloth and silver trellis napkins. Such simple, understated colours that could easily be dressed up with a big bouquet of white gardenias. Gold and silver bon bons and scattered candles would complete the look for christmas, but it could be enjoyed all year round. As a young designer I have a great appreciation for amazing design, but sadly not the budget to fulfill my chair obsession! If I were to win, I would be very greatful and enjoy these pieces for many, many years to come.
