What are these new chairs make of- is it a plastic? I wonder if the traditional woven chairs will become scarce... I like the color but I don't like that fact that the traditional ones will be supplanted by this style.
I KNOW the woven ones are plastic- that's OK by me cuz they are more flexible on the bum. And more interesting to look at. These look like hard plates of plastic which could be uncomfortable to sit on.
I am a former elementary school teacher, a full-time photographer, lover of all things French ( whose French is slowly improving), obsessive Paris traveler, enthusiastic church and community volunteer, and grandmother to 5 delightful grandchildren.
I fell in love with Paris in March 2007. It was as the French say, le coup de foudre : love at first sight. As a result of that trip, my photography took another direction. Since that time I have pursued a career of sorts in photography and dreamed of returning to the City of Light. November 2008 found me strolling the streets of Paris once again. My first visit I was so overwhelmed with the incredible beauty of the city, I photographed it as a "tourist". In 2008 I returned and I looked at the city with more of a photographer's eye. I wanted to capture the unique, the small details, and oh yes - the people! This blog was started as a photo diary of that trip, but I have been most fortunate to return to the city j'adore 15 times since. Each time I leave, I wipe a tear and start planning my list for the next trip. Paris may well be a moveable feast, but I think it's best savored in person! Someone told me that once you have been to Paris, you will leave a piece of your heart. I left mine right there, but I brought home some wonderful memories. It is my pleasure to share them with you.

"Citron-verts", I would say ! It's a very elegant design... as is the photo of course.
It's not easy being green but the matching green pot on the table makes it work.
Green works hope they are comfy.
Quite a bright shade of green.

Simply beautiful and they make you smile. What else can we ask?
Roseann, I think many of the woven ones are plastic since they are left out in all weather. I agree that the old ones are the very best!
