bobsmyuncle- Thank you! I'll check them out.

That chair appears to be covered in sheepskin (like Arctander's Clam chair https://www.1stdibs.com/furniture/seating/lounge-chairs/philip-arctander-sheepskin-clam-chair-1950s/id-f_14456521/    or a very thick boucle. Maybe adding those terms to your searches will help? Good luck!

I knew they were nice chairs!! Replacing the seat is easy! Remove the old cane....carefully diggign out the old spline without damaging the wood ( that's the hard part) then You buy the cane already woven... and a length of spline. Soak the cane in glycerin and water to soften and using wooden pegs, push it into the groove where the spline was....when all is tight....squirt some glue into the groove and lay in the spline, firming it up with a rubber mallet. Use an exacto knife to cut the ends of the spline to fit closely. I'll bet ther is a youtube video or two. Once you get the old cane out it's a 20 minute job to replace the cane.

Succulents need good drainage and good light/sunlight all the times, not only when you want to for them to bloom. I was wondering about the instructions, since I do not do anything different for them. They bloom when they want IMO. There are many instructions about holiday cacti for example - I never did what they say and they bloom regardless. I keep outside all succulents+other plants as long as possible. Some will bloom better if they spend some time there, but I would keep them outdoors regardless if I like them to bloom or not. On some, I sometimes cut the inflorescence off - most often haworthias. They get really long inflos, and blooms are quite insignificant. There are some plants that are monocarpic - blooming plant dies when finished. For example some kalanchoes, sempervivums (hardy succulents) and few more. I read that inflo could be cut off to 'save' the plant - I do not know if that works because I never tried. Those plants grow offsets anyway to replace themselves. I asked what you did with the beheaded plant - and you did great. This particular plant grow really well and easy, as you already found out! Not all of them do so well, and are bit more finicky. Some will not even propagate from leaves but from stem cuttings, and few only from the seeds.
