Doesn't it look like it was refashioned from the remnants of a balloon crash?
Yes, it's quite expensive. But you probably don't have a house large enough for it, either. One can dream, however, one can dream.

10% Punk
I believe that Steampunk is more than just brass and watchparts. It's finding a way to combine the past and the future in an aesthetic pleasing yet still punkish way. It's living a life that looks old-fashioned, yet speaks to the future. It's taking the detritus of our modern technological society and remaking it into useful things. Join me as I search for items for my house that combine the scientific romanticism of the Victorians with our real present and imagined future.

I think a similar thing could be pulled off by starting with a rattan porch sofa. How cool would it be to make a balloon looking canopy thing to attatch to the wall, and then attatching it to the couch somehow?
ps-while looking for a picture of a rattan couch, I found this, which is insanely steampunk (in my mind) http://everythingandnothing.typepad.com/photos/uncategorized/0609nickelcouch.jpeg
