Believe it or not, I actually found a photo of a REAL weaved cappellini S chair (see attached image).  Surprisingly, it's pretty much the same as my second attempt, but has only two large supporting vertical pieces down the center, and they do seem to conform somewhat to the shape of the chair; they aren't totally straight.   Wish I saw this before I started modeling it, for reference!

My weave is actually more complex than the real one, but only because I thought it needed to be, when in reality, I had already nailed it on my second attempt.  Sometimes things aren't as complex as we imagine they should be.  I don't care really, I'd rather have a more complex chair, but wow.  I didn't think it would be that simple.
