Someone ought to tell Playboy Hi-Fi’s making a big comeback.
from www.suntimes.com – Looking for a $15,000 loveseat with Hugh Hefner’s name on it?
As part of Playboy Clubs Enterprises’ 50th anniversary, the Chicago-based Playboy is partnering with “Mad Men” actor and designer Bryan Batt [pictured] to offer 50 “limited edition” loveseats, each to be hand-signed by Hugh Hefner.
The chairs, dubbed “The Hef,” will cost $15,000 each and will go on sale online at HazelnutNewOrleans.com on Feb. 1, in a simultaneous launch of the loveseats at a furniture trade show in Las Vegas.
Batt, who co-owns with a partner design shop Hazelnut, in New Orleans, and Playboy Clubs bunnies will attend the loveseats’ unveiling, a Playboy spokeswoman said today.
The loveseat is meant to evoke the 1960s era, and are made of mohair with rosewood side panels and down back cushions.
