| help identify waste can | 1 Relevance | 21 years ago | NULL NULL | General discussion | |
| I just bought an unmarked modernist wastecan. It is a very thin molded plywood in the shape of a cone with the smaller end as the opening and tapering larger to the floor.It has walnut veneer and painted black inside. The dimensions are roughly 20" high 15" opening on top and about 18" at the bottom . Anyone seen one like this? | |||||

| does the bird eat the grasshopper? | 1 Relevance | 21 years ago | whitespike | General discussion | |
| I am considering purchasing either a Bird chair or a Grasshopper chair. Any thoughts on pros and cons? Initially I chose these over several other lounges, including the Eames lounge and the Saarinen womb. I chose them for their dimensions and comfort. I have always had a particular fondness for the Bird chair and Bertoia in general. I love the aesthetic and it's placement would allow it to be viewed from the back. I also like its slight rocking capability .... The Grasshopper is one of the easiest modern lounges to get out of. It isn't as iconic but it is e ... | |||||
| Blind mounted boxes for the wall for AV equipment | 1 Relevance | 21 years ago | Big Television Man | General discussion | |
| Does anyone know of an online retailer that sells a box that is blind mounted to the wal to store A/V equipment. The boxes would preferably be made out of an interesting harwood and have inside dimensions similar to the size of a DVD player, or surround sound processor that could be mounted beneath a wall mounted plasma television set. Thanks. | |||||
| She told me it was Burke. (Eames Venice DAX) | 1 Relevance | 15 years ago | J.J. | General discussion | |
| Hello everyone, Hope one of you can help me answer a few questions I have about what I picked up today. Saw it in a window for under $100. No label/sticker and the lady told me she thought it was fake because of the "rather large shock mounts" and probably was Burke or something. I resisted saying anything because I loved it and thought I'd do the research once I got home. Of course, it appears to be the earlier Eames Zenith DAX with the black "x" base designated with a letter "d". The base's hardware appears all original (from my research) and the condition is just fantastic. Dimensions are true: 31" H (almost - no glides) 18" to the seat 25" W (almost at it's widest points) So I guess my first real question is whether the shell is authentic to the base? Have the mounts been redone? Without a label is there anyway to authenticate the year of the shell? There's no rope edge but I think maybe it would fall under a 2nd year production as I've read about. It's an interesting light olive/mint green in color (hard to represent with a photo) and a bit on the grayish side. Maybe somewhat greige? She told me the mount was original as when she acquired it. By the look of the few bits of rust around the mount contact, it seems like it's completely natural and no separate job was done. I'm guessing this is around 1953 if things check out? And I believe the glides are missing? I've seen this online with no glides and nobody made mention of it but I would think it needs the angled boots I could pick up from Graham Mancha Design. Thank you all. | |||||
| Help ID Lamps arteluce sarfatti sottsass arredoluce | 1 Relevance | 15 years ago | urban_one-34 | Identification | |
| ... (which seems to be original) is rather unusual: a green wire with a red plug and black switch (plug and switch signed Ticino Italy). Approx. dimensions are 32 (H) x 41 (W) x 38cm (D). I purchased this lamp about 20 years ago in Belgium, but I doubt the lamp was made in Belgium. The second table lamp is very Arteluce / Sarfatti-like. The lamp was probably designed in the 1950s. The narrow zeppelin-shaped shade is mounted on a brass arm, which is adjustable. The arm is mounted on a black lacquered base. Approx. dimensions are 22 (H) x 40 (W) x 10cm (D). All ... | |||||

| I agree: do the homework to | 1 Relevance | 10 years ago | leif ericson - Zephyr Renner | General discussion | |
| I agree: do the homework to figure out the exact dimensions and have it made. This is a nice enough piece of furniture I think it deserves to be made whole again. You can get the teak from eBay. It generally comes from Costa Rica, so be sure to get pieces that don't have the whitish grey sapwood in the finished piece. The likelihood of finding a spare backrest is next to nil. You would probably have to buy one of these sofas that got completely trashed in 'as-is' condition to get the backrest. And good luck finding that. | |||||
| If you don't want to wait for | 1 Relevance | 10 years ago | Spanky | General discussion | |
| If you don't want to wait for a damaged frame sold as parts, your best bet is probably to have one made. It would mean determining the dimensions of the parts and finding a cabinetmaker and metal fabricator who can do the work. Looks like the metal parts of the armrests are the same as on the back (except for being bent and being shorter) so that will make it a lot easier. Good luck! | |||||
| I don't have a great photo of | 1 Relevance | 10 years ago | leif ericson - Zephyr Renner | General discussion | |
| I don't have a great photo of the side of the wishbone, but I remember only two pieces, and the photo I have certainly looks like it is only two pieces. It may be possible that at some point in time Carl Hansen decided that to go with a 3 ply wishbone. I really don't know. The stamped number and initials look very right though. You might even try and see if you can find another wishbone with the same initials penciled on. How far off are the numbers? I would not be surprised at all if the dimensions have changed a bit from time to time. | |||||
| I thought I would have | 1 Relevance | 10 years ago | leif ericson - Zephyr Renner | General discussion | |
| I thought I would have measurements in one of my Søborg catalogs, but there are no measurements for the chairs in any of the catalogs. I had not realized that. The SM 122 has vertical legs and a much smaller backrest. I suppose it looks a little bit similar. Antik Modern is wrong with the model number. I would not think that there would be knockoffs off this design. And I would not be too surprised if the dimensions were a little bit different over time. | |||||
| Another Paolo Piva table (copy/homebuild?) | 1 Relevance | 15 years ago | abelian | General discussion | |
| Location: New Zealand Dimensions: Width 46.5" Depth 22.75" Height 14.75" I purchased this table from an online listing with terrible photos. The finish quality of the welds (although strong) seems less than I would expect? The top bars have been constructed from straight lengths welded at the corner The top and bottom bars are spot welded at the points where the legs meet the top frame. I have never seen a confirmed original of these in person so don't know the usual quality or detail of fabrication. There are no makers marks that I can see (although I think this is normal). Any helpful comment from someone with first hand knowledge appreciated. | |||||
| table design | 1 Relevance | 16 years ago | whitespike | General discussion | |
| You guys were so helpful in helping me decide on a credenza (I still owe you a photo in its new locale), that I thought I may discuss tables as well. I have never had the good fortune of having a nice dinner table. And with the way things are going, it doesn't seem likely that I will be purchasing one any time soon. And besides the economical challenges I have, finding one to suit my needs at any price has been a challenge. After a couple more projects of mine are complete, including building a playscape and a fence around my property, I am thinking about ... | |||||
| Calling all designers! Cypress wood project | 1 Relevance | 16 years ago | ToShun Campbell | General discussion | |
| ... likely it was used as flooring or as a joist of some sort. He also left me a huge burled Cypress knee that may be used in the project. At any rate I'd like to make it into something really nice and I?m looking for ideas. It has great color and the water marks and old world hand planning marks give it lots of character. Short of carting it off to Lancaster, PA to be made into a rocking chair I'd like to make it into something Mid Century-ish. The dimensions are approximately 2'X 12'X 3". Looking for ideas, suggestions, plans, or references. Thanks!! | |||||
