	In search of a rare George Nelson Pendulum clock! Please help!	1 Relevance	18 years ago	NULL NULL	General discussion
	OK...so I had total destruction happen to a pristine George Nelson (for Howard Miller) chain-driven, chime clock by the wrath of Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans, when I lost my home and business. Ever since then, I have been desperately trying to obtain another clock (at this point, in any condition)and have had no luck anywhere. First of all, the Howard Miller Clock Company could not even identify the rare bird, and as of this morning, I was told by a clock specialist at their company that the clock, indeed,was designed by George Nelson and has not been in production for some 30 or 40 years. The thing is this, I am trying to either get a destroyed clock in total working order, or buy another one that is repairable. This clock means a lot to me, as it was the last thing I looked at before closing the door behind me upon evacuation. It was given as a gift after I totally remodeled the house that was destroyed by the storm, and I would like to have it again in my new home, to mark a turning point in my life. The problem is, no one seems to know anything about it. PLEASE TAKE A LOOK AT THE PHOTO IN THE LINK BELOW AND HELP ME IDENTIFY THIS CLOCK! Oh, and if you know anyone owning one that wishes to sell, in any condition, I am seriously in the market to buy -paying top dollar. THANKS! http://www.artnewyork.com/interior/kitchenware/html/nelsonc.htm
	Bertoia Diamond Chair 421 - Real or fake	1 Relevance	9 years ago	Chrisaa	Identification
	Hi addicts, I bought my dream chair last week - a Bertoia Diamond Chair. But the seller didn't have any papers on it, so I just need a confirmation, that its not a fake. Not knowing has been killing me. It has a Knoll 'Made in Italy' sticker on the frame - suppose that a good thing. Edges seem to be sleek and nicely finished. Only thing putting my off is the grinding on the frame (last foto) - I don't know if it is normal or from a previous reperation. Info: paid 475 euro for the chair. I hope you guys can help me out!

	Aha, and, aha. Thanks for that ! Now to go look up "ashlar." (I assume that's the stonework they were referring to -- or to which they referred.) So, England has "southerners" too. What is it about The South . . .? (Note to Mark: Florida isn't the South; it's a Whole Other Thing, wouldn't you say ?)

	If you are attempting to correlate with other fabrics, keep swatches of them in your car so you have them when you need them. As mentioned above, the context of the thing is pretty much everything. If you have your context with you, you will waste far less time in the process of making your selection.

	Contact your retailer's customer service department or hire a designer, or just read what's on all the modern-oriented retailer websites that sell this thing.

	Here it is (was) in stages of being finished- I don't think I have a picture of the entire finished thing though. I bought it for £99 on eBay, and managed to retain the original lighting and the glass doors

	. Another thing you could try on stains that havn't been soaked in, grime etc is just rub a pencil eraser all over it vigorously, works well on wood for getting pencil marks out and then just vacuum out the rubbings.

	Thanks for posting that. It... Thanks for posting that. It is a great looking ad - and with Olsen again named as the designer of the chair. It is a peculiar thing that the manufacturer no longer makes any mention of him anymore.
