    Wow! I love this high chair. Occa­sion­ally, I’ll see one in an inte­ri­ors mag­a­zine and I’ll won­der its origin.

    Thanks for shar­ing that. $125 isn’t much for some­thing so beau­ti­ful. Unfor­tu­nately for the baby in my house, she wouldn’t be allowed to sit in it!

    That’s what Ikea’s for!

    Lov­ing this — the colour, the materials…and def­i­nitely a great price.
