Does anyone know about Paul Frankl designs? Matt & I just bought a set from an antique store, they are repairing some of the caining so we won't pick it up for 2 weeks or so. The set is a couch, 2 chairs, ottoman, a chaise and ottoman (they are slightly different, but close in design. The couch, chairs & ottomam have rings of bamboo (7 I believe) which the dealer said is the most he came out with. There are a few end tables also that come with the set. The cushions were reapulstered, but I was really curious if anyone knows more information.

I don't have a photo yet of the set, but soon.

Here's a site that shows the style:

Thanks for any information you can share!
On a side note, we spent the weekend putting matting on a wall in our family room and cut some bamboo poles to cover the seams. We plan to finish and do the same on the pitched ceiling, once we get the furniture we can decorate! I'll definatly post pix when it's done, can't wait, it's very exciting!
