	Knoll chest dresser, where to find authentic legs?	1 Relevance	8 years ago	bj	Repair
	Hi all, Managed to pick up three of these chests that lost their metal legs along their lives. Is there any resource to get some originals or original looking ones? They are round, black lacquered and finished of with (I assume) chromed feet. I could take some examples out of a general hardware store, but wonder if I'll diminute their value. I'll attach a pic for reference. Thanks! Attachment: early-florence-knoll-maple-chest-dresser-with-metal-legs.jpg.png

	... least in Asian circles. Granted most western ones do. I've never seen a handle-less mug. That would be a beaker in my understanding of the English language. In Spain, I was presented with coffee in the DBAS format. It wasn't a reasonable way to drink coffee to my way of thinking. It's hard to pick up, requires two hands, and can lead to toasted fingers! Sipping tea one-handedly from a diminutive handle-less Asian tea cup is simple, just grasp from rim to base vertically. But the DBAS doesn't afford that option.

	... pulled out a place setting and they look great, still. The handles are thin but feel fine in the hand with a smooth and balanced action. The table knife was the cincher for me and I still find it visually delightful. When the set arrived the diminutive size of the desert service seemed odd to me. I have come to enjoy using them, but it took some time for me to adjust. It is hard to be objective about there tactile feel. I have used them so long that I am now accustomed to them. When I was actively shopping I went to all of the local department stores, High ...

	. And everyone kisses children, enthusiastically and often. My own boys are well-trained to proffer their cheeks to all visiting adults. Although on return trips to Britain they find they are often left hanging, with their necks arched, while stuffy, distant British adults look at them in confusion. "Oh! You were expecting a kiss," they'll say. Argentines are definitely more friendly. But sometimes, it is just too much. Too many lips and too many cheeks. The kissing between men is done in a very macho, Argentine sort of way. When two friends meet in the stre ...

	LED Kelvin I love the new LED Kelvin's for Flos. I saw them recently in an office and found them quite elegant, simple, and sturdy. And perhaps if you like the look of the non-LED kelvin spring for an AJ floor lamp? Although I dont know if those are dimmable.

	Couple of suggestions.... Couple of suggestions. parentesi lamp by castiglioni for FLOS, not dimmable I don't think. Luxmaster F by Jasper Morrison for FLOS, just a bit over 600 Euro. However, you can always find a second hand model for a lot less. (it is dimmable and adjustable on height and direction- it is also very bright at the brightest, 250W) Hope this helps! edited for added information.

I've fantasized about a fictional account of the two of them working together. "Frank and Bucky" could be an energetic play with very strong characters. I'd love to have witnessed those two in the same room! How would they fit? My two favorite Americans, flaws and all. (Their flaws were so paradigmatically American) How did they interact?

	... from here to the upside is a tightrope walk. Copper is incredibly reactive and you want to selectively remove, dimish, and enhance the patina to favor the intentional and original over the age acquired. You can't even strip it without the fear of the stripper leaving the table top bright copper. And assuming you strip it successfully you can't touch it with a bare finger without leaving your fingerprint in the patina. I have a bad case of nerves just thinking about it. Contrast that with a wooden furniture restoration in which you start with junk, with mi ...

If you can put either elbo grease or a little money to look pristeen again you should do it , I have cleaned those chairs up with steel wool and oil for the wood and they look brand new, and no one ever said you just dimished the value of the chair. I doubt that any one would want an shabby piece of crap with a Panton, Eames, Nelson, Jacobsen name on it if it was old flaky and smelly . The is not cool that is borderline Junk (sad but true)

	Sorry for the large images,... Sorry for the large images, they are reduced now. The lamp should preferably be dimmable. It does not matter much how the dimming part is done. Weather it is made i four steps like the Costanza or a stepless dimmer fitted by me or the manufacturer. If you fit a dimmer on a lamp that already has a on/off-switch on the fixture it will look ugly, but if the manufacturer-provided switch is on the cord, adding a dimmer is not much of a problem. Yes, a dimmer would be nice but if there are no suitable models with that feature, that f ...

	First of all As a courtesy to those expected to help you, please consider reducing the size of your images. Now on to your question: Does the lamp have to be electrically dimmable? I am sure you realize that narrows the selection down to a minimum.
