A Thing of Beauty



The other day at work we had a "lunch & learn". This is when a manufacturer's rep comes during lunch, brings us food and gives a presentation about his/her product. The man that came the other day brought a terrible lunch from Luby's. Not only was the food gross but he didn't bring enough. We're not Jesus with the fishes & loaves people!

But then he pulled out the Emeco binder and I was blinded by beauty. It was like hearing the angels sing. Now, we'll probably never sell any of these chairs because they are expensive but maybe I can talk him into bringing a demo model into the office. Then I can put it near me so I can touch it and pet it and call it George.

The model pictured here is the Kong chair and was designed by Philipe Starck.

  1. Dear Elizabeth:
    I am sorry Jeff did not bring enough lunch for you all. If you give us another chance to bring in some Emeco chairs and tell you why they are so expensive I promise that we will do better. Meanwhile, if you visit our site, www.emeco.net, you will see the Emeco Cinema section – there are some wild films about Emeco that show you the quality of the furniture we make. I know once you find out about our products you will be able to sell them. Let me know when we can come back with FOOD.
    Best,
