| Replacing Saarinen seat cushions | 1 Relevance | 19 years ago | ~L | General discussion | |
| Am in need of new seat cushions for 4 of my Knoll Saarinen tulip arm chairs. Seems no one appreciates the wonderful wear and tear in the original ones that are on them 🙁 and think I'm some eccentric middle age crazy who gave up a perfectly beautiful kitchen dinette set for something they see no value in (poor souls). Checking around I find just a few places that carry true Knoll Saarinen replacement cushions at a dear price of just under $300 a piece!!! I'm sure I can have someone make cushions for a lot less but I would like to keep true to the original. ... | |||||

| ... and was wondering if I can purchase other swivel chairs and just switch out the bottoms? Does BR50 and BR51 refer to the swivel and stationary bases? Can I put a base that comes from an armless chair on an arm chair? Also, I need to have the seat cushions replaced on the arm chairs because they are really bad (split Naugahide). What are your opinions on replacement cushions? Do I go to my local place and just have some made that will look similar or do I pay the $300 or so for gunuine knoll pads? My feeling is that I will have this set for the rest of ... | |||||

| This is the base for a nice dinette set. I think I've seen it somewhere attributed to Daystrom, but I can't find it now. I sincerely doubt that it was inspired by Platner except perhaps through the collective unconscious. http://www.ebay.com/itm/VINTAGE-1960-S-DINETTE-SET-YELLOW-VINYL-METAL-RO... | |||||

| ... consist of a $199 high top dinette, a $399 sofa, a $79 TV stand, etc. This is the kind of crap that mainstream middle class consumers with a "contemporary" style preference purchase and I suppose there's nothing wrong with that* if you have no creativity or taste i.e. you're are just an average yahoo and not a "designaddict". Really all it needs is a little love, so to speak- I could move in there and have it looking great in no time! *actually I could probably write a quite lengthy essay about all the things that are wrong with that, but hey let's not bur ... | |||||

| I personally | 1 Relevance | 13 years ago | glassartist | General discussion | |
| I personally Dont think Pearsalls designs merit the same lauding as other celebrated designers. I see almost all of his output as either too derivitive of others works or too kitchy. I marvel that his pieces bring significant prices at times. Much of his work leans toward the world of multi tiered fiberglass shade plaster lamps and chrome and vinyl dinette sets for me. Training or not, I dont see his contribution to design history. | |||||

| ... earlier stuff (think early- the mid-'50s dinette sets, for instance) was fetching considerably more than I see them it for these days. Part of that might be the down economy, but I suspect the bigger part is that the folks willing to hand over the dough for such things have, um, moved on. | |||||

| It's hard to be original these days, it seems. I apologize for my my readiness. It's the holidays. What, with this being the middle of Zappadan and all, I've allowed myself to get caught up in the spirit. A chrome dinette for all!

His Planner Group stuff was moderately priced and nice and his Calvin and directional more refined collections are beautiful too.
