We are having an art exhibit as part of the DECADES festival the end of next month that includes paintings/artifacts from 24 periods . . . . Stone Age cave paintings to Post-Modern/Deconstructivism "concept art." Each period also features a chair that's typical of the era. We all sit, after all and chairs are fun in SL.

I've located and/or made chairs for all 24 periods but two: Mesopotamian and Egyptian (I have an Egyptian chair, but it is truly ugly...and the only other one I found that works in the exhibit is 24 LI)

Am attaching photo of Queen Hetepheres I chair. She was a Queen of Egypt during the 4th dynasty. If anyone would be willing to create a replica, please get in touch. We would feature it and the Mesopotamian chair as fund raiser purchases, as well as include them in the exhibit. Will attach the other image in next note.

The second chair - ASSYRIAN. Two drawings of chairs from The British Museum...and a snippet of text from the museum:

"The discoveries which have been made in the oldest seat of monarchical government in the world, by such enterprising travellers as Sir Austin Layard, Mr. George Smith, and others who have thrown so much light upon domestic life in Nineveh, are full of interest in connection with this branch of the subject. We learn from these authorities that the furniture was ornamented with the heads of lions, bulls, and rams; tables, thrones, and couches were made of metal and wood, and probably inlaid with ivory; the earliest chair, according to Sir Austin Layard, having been made without a back, and the legs terminating in lion's feet or bull's hoofs. Some were of gold, others of silver and bronze. On the monuments of Khorsabad, representations have been discovered of chairs supported by animals, and by human figures, probably those of prisoners. In the British Museum is a bronze throne, found by Sir A. Layard amidst the ruins of Nimrod's Palace, which shews ability of high order for skilled metal work."
