My WTB loves some elements of baroque, Victorian, Edwardian style furnishing, while I prefer a more understated, chic sleek design so I think the ghost chairs are a great addition to our house!

Hi Yang Guo,

What's the difference between stainless steel and chrome? Would it make a huge cost difference?

Anyway I got an initial quote for 1.5K including 4 leather dining chairs, but got a bulk discount as I got the coffee table (it is without the stainless steel strips in the photo) and sofa. They also threw in tampered glass for the dining table free. Anyway there are a number of sales now so just look around!

hi redang,

Chrome will tarnish and turn dull colour when in contact with water (if u dont clean the water off immediately).

Stainless steel is better material that will not turn dull and tarnish so easily

so stainless steel price is normally more exp than chrome lor.

If its stainless steel for the price that u got, its really a super good deal :good:

how much is this? n where u got it from? lookin for something like this to put beside my shoe cabinet

mwerkz, actually this was given free to us as well. But you can go down to Winter at IFC Sungei Gadok to have a look but think you know that there are many complaints with them.

I'm taking a risk because the salesgirl promised to follow-up closely. Fingers crossed.

Ya, I didn't realise they were affliated to Red Apple until much later. Anyway, the lady - Labon - that served us was really on the ball. Knew exactly when shipments were coming in to Singapore, and reassured that she will keep us informed if there are any delays.

Nevertheless, lucky you about the delivery after seeing many complaints from forummers about Red Apple until I am getting concerned. Will keep everyone posted about it.

Anyway, Mwerkz, I will help you look out for stuff - if I see anything I will take a photo and post it up for ya. Hope this helps.

My sister got your dining lights as her bedroom lights, in a different arrangement. Very pretty! The swarovski crystals are really beautiful when light shines through! That's just about the only item they decided that it's not very practical but wanted to splurge on.

Hi Rain,

We fall in love with the lights from our first look :dribble: so we really like them too. Our living room walls, ceiling and floor are dark coloured, so we hope the crystals will give it a nice, warm silhoutte! I can't wait to get them installed! :rolleyes:

By way do you think its not practical? This is much easier to clean than a conventional designer piece or chandelier! We paid a little more though to change the standard crystals to swarovski ones as the colours are so pretty!
