try persian gabbeh rugs which can be similair, some crpa but some are along those lines and v nice for that kind of style - all trad hand made carpets. Alt email that pic to a few large uk rug dealers and they should be able to get you something. Try the big dept stores too as they have great buyers for these kinds of things and there are a few importer warehouses where you may be able to go along. Don't muck about with their sales people try and email their head offices. Unfortunately I can't remember any of their names (importers).
finally the chair turned up - been waiting for this as it was put in storage. sadly not branded herman miller but a fibre glass version from Modernica LA - it looks reasonably old close up though, not as shiny as photo suggests. can't grumble it was for nowt.

also picked up another vintage evertaut stool for an ebay bargain (background) - the seller didn't know anything about it.

like that chair ^ but table is a bit odd - no doubt will look good in your place.
on the hunt for a good Karl Jacobs Jason chair, at a nice price.
really like some of the ply chairs..

i found mine on ebay,I had seen a few sets up for around the 500 mark, they do pop up for a round the 100 mark on ebay if you search for a bit, it took me a month or so of searchs, theres also a furniture fair in london coming up at lords cricket ground I think in may which might be a good place although I imagine prices will be high there

You've got to give it to Margaret Howell up there on her sofa - that brand was doing the authentic/minimal clothing thing before all the others.
