Chair #298




MONKEY CHAIR
—Designed by Judy Kensley McKie

I adore this furniture maker. Her chairs are often made of rare wood, and they evoke an certain mystery. This whimsical monkey chair could jump right out of a Henry Rousseau's jungle painting such as The Dream, The Snake Charmer, or Tiger in a Tropical Storm. The chair is made of cast bronze and walnut.

In the jungle, the mighty jungle
The lion sleeps tonight
In the jungle, the mighty jungle
The lion sleeps tonight....
