T Magazine's The Moment blog has stumbled upon terrific The Mini Chair Designer Collection on odds-and-ends site Japan Trend Shop. Despite the fact that these Lilliputian Eameses and Le Corbusiers are "considerably smaller and more cheaply made" than their Vitra-produced cousins, writer Steven Heller argues that "they satisfy this miniature chair fetishist’s needs" and that they offer an element of surprise. "You can order a single chair from one of the sets, but you never know which one you’re going to get," he writes. Who cares what shows up in the mail! In layman's terms, these are OMFG, so adorbs.
