Decent automotive-themed furniture is hard to find. However Racing & Emotion has come up with custom-built chairs that are really works of art. The focus is on the Porsche 917, which is one of the most famous of all racing Porsches and the car star of the movie “Le Mans” that actor Steve McQueen produced and starred in. R&E make what are called egg chairs, since they are inspired by Arne Jacobsen’s 1958 design. Each of the two distinct shapes is produced from molded fiberglass, and feature cloth, or optional leather seats. Prices for the Egg series start at $6,500, while the smaller ball-type models sell for upwards of $5,500. The company will also provide any color scheme you desire at extra cost. Scope out the entire collection and reserve a production spot at www.racing-emotionusa.com.
