The Bertoia Diamond Chair ($909) is a classic that needs no fiddling with. But a little reinvention never hurt anyone. Or has it? In this case, I think Tracy Deramus deserves some props for Daddy's Fatties Chair ($2,750), which features vintage neckties hand-woven into Harry Bertoia's steel masterpiece. The new design looks more like one of the Campana brothers' showstoppers than a 1952 archetype. I've seen neckties woven before by Alabama Chanin, but this guy employs less country sweetness and more bravado. What do you think?

That's so ugly on so many levels.
