The Red Chair is here to stay

by | July 2012

The Red Chair has been in my life since I met Willem, which was nearly 28 years ago. Back then it belonged to his parents, who gave me a very warm welcome during a very rough period at home. Something I am still very thankful for. The chair was the chair of Willem’s mother. Everyone respected that, even the boys. Willem has two brothers and their house was always filled with stories, laughter, friends and family. I have very fond memories of that time.

When their house was redecorated we were happy to take the chair into our home. It has traveled with us since then and is now part of twikga as well. It sits in my office, I use it to think and to relax with a cup of tea. Our dog Duvel tried to claim it, when he was younger. Somehow it has found its way onto the websites. So the Red Chair is there to stay, a reason to give it some more attention…
