Modern Greek stool
I picked it because it looks like the picture of Greek x stools only more comfortable to sit on.

Modern greek high back chair
I pick this chair because i could use it as a dinning chair  design or a living room chair design

Modern Greek couch
i picked this couch because you look at and picture of Greeks on a couch its always shaped somewhat like a fainting couch .

Modern Greek bed
I pick this bed because the design is of any modern bed with a headboard only its beading decor  depicts  greek design

modern side table
I picked this table because of the leg style which speaks Greek to me and the design around the table top  speaks ancient. that and if clients wants a hand made design we cans change it out with any design they feel fits their taste.
