Pretty Little Green Things

I just got back from a design meeting with Laurent Charlet, owner and founder of Charlet Design, a small custom furniture company based in Brooklyn.  His furniture pieces are really beautiful so I just had to share  it with you.  Laurent makes everything to order and sources reclaimed wood where possible.  You can specify the wood in an oiled finish rather than polyurethane, which is the non-toxic and, I think, much prettier way to go.  Plus if you live in New York, both the production and the delivery are local.  These are a few of Laurent’s pieces from his website, but since everything is custom, you can really get whatever you want.
