The egg chair gets a “3d” leather covering
The egg draped in "Peony" leather fabric by artist, Helen Amy Murray she is an internationally recognized artist for her use of hand-crafted, luxury creations inspired to create 3D surfaces within textiles. I think it looks pretty damn good gracing the egg chair, have any of you seen any other unique fabrics on the egg? Leave a comment below if you have.
Helen won the Oxo-Peugeot Prize in 2004 for her designs, and you can see more of her work here.

I’ve never seen such a beautiful egg chair! Seeing this post actually makes me want to purchase one even more - I just wish they weren’t so expensive. My fiance would kill me.
This design would go beautifully in my living room - I absolutely LOVE it!

The rose leather is gorgeous! Normally I only see egg chairs in ugly plastic colors, but this is something that would actually look good in my house.

This chair is gorgeous. The design perfectly fits the contour of the chair. I just had to try the link to her sight. What creativity. The chair is a work of art and well as a functional piece of furniture.

A very interesting-looking piece of furniture. I agree with the previous poster who said it required an open space. People will want to walk all round it and feel it up. The surface looks as if it would have a wonderful feel.

This egg chair chair is beautiful and would easily fit into any room. But the design of the flower is very beautiful and smartly placed.

Truly,
The conceptor of such a ludicrous fantasy didn’t get the spririt of Arne Jacobsen, the designer of this icone of design, who concepted one of the most simple, curved and soft chair ever created.
Why always try to change something beautiful into something different but odder, and less attractive? This is a very much occidental idea, preformed here by chinese makers. Fancy and funky, and only a way to sell you a new kind of vinyle stuff.
