	That distinctive low round... That distinctive low round picquot ware shape probably influenced things from the thirties on, I think that's when picquot ware started wasn't it? If so, then it's quite possible that the kettle could be forties as it has distinct similarities.
	RE: Any ideas on this Rosewood wall unit/room divider?	2 Relevance	6 years ago	mark737	Identification
	@mvc Short Bio on Le Klint website: Henning SeidelinSculptor, 1904-1987Henning Seidelin first worked as a sculptor. His naturalistic groups of figures testify to a distinct sense of mass in space, and some have bold cuts that demonstrate his sure instinct for composition. Later, Henning Seidelin became an industrial designer and created classics in cutlery, kitchen equipment and tableware, in addition to drawings for furniture, tiled stoves, etc.

	distinctions.... I have already and extensively expressed my views on this forum on intellectual property rights and the "artificial" but clever ways in which Knoll and Herman Miller extend these rights even when the patents are expired. I still think that there products are over priced and that in doing so they increase the appetite of competitors to do better price wise. But I would not put Mr Lau's attempts at the same level. What he calls improvements in materials and technology is most likely what every other manufacturer does in southern China, which is to produce without any consideration for the environment, for decent working hours and other conditions, without any social benefits or security at extremely low salaries. His promise to tell us why "made in China" is so low in price is straight lie or at least the withholding of some real information. I do not mind an European or American company competing with Knoll or Herman Miller on a classic that is in the public domain. The have to follow the same stict rules on the environmental impact of for instance chrome plating. A Chinese company does not and will not even make an attempt to follow any of these standards. I do not see why I should not be willing to pay an American or European worker that makes one of thes classics the same salary as I have to pay my car mechanic, the personel in a restaurant, the carpenter that is building an extension to my house or any other provider of a service or labor. Those who do not mind buying at these ridiculously low prices should have a second look, not at the way their ignorant friends react on their badly made copies, but at the miserable conditions in which these products are made. This is not a question of royalties or licences or added taxes this is a matter of fair trade.

	Walnut has a very distinctive	2 Relevance	10 years ago	leif ericson - Zephyr Renner	General discussion
	Walnut has a very distinctive (and to me unpleasant) smell when being cut. You should be able to positively identify it by smell regardless of oddities of grain or color. And some walnut can have very unusual grain. The sheer weight of the chair should be a decent indicator of rosewood vs walnut; walnut feels about as heavy as I expect, rosewood feels notably heavier. Early Danish modern furniture, as in up to about 1953 or 1954 did use plenty of walnut. There was not a lot of teak used. This was due to the fact that teak could only be worked a very low c ...
	Those are very distinctive	2 Relevance	11 years ago	leif ericson - Zephyr Renner	General discussion
	Those are very distinctive drawer sides; there is no dado slide in the slide. So the drawers slide on their bottoms, with a that piece of teak hiding the internal cross member that supports the drawer. The drawers don't have a slide down the center of the underside right? If you can find more drawers executed in this fashion, there is a likelihood you will have found the manufacturer. From what I see on this side of the photos, I don't see anything that would definitely rule out the late 60s. The oak legs make it perhaps more likely to be early, but it is al ...

	Distinctive glass You are right. One of the most desirable and distinctive qualities of the very early production Noguchi tables is the original pale green glass which as you said is more yellow green than the later greenish blue (like a coke bottle). It looks like this:

	I do not want to distract you from... the subject but I am so ignorant about search engines that I actually learned something from Andrewj. So I put my own name and Bauhaus on the google search page and found 26.300 links...thanks Andrewj! I do not want to put our hosts on the spot, but I am curious about the status of the Stoclet palace in Brussels. I understood that the building as such was now a Unesco protected site, but what about the furniture and the large collection of art. I remember a very impressive collection of Chinese and Japanese art. (I had t ...

	Ah, I got distracted looking ... Ah, I got distracted looking at Cado product on the danish furniture index, and there is this table. It is credited to Poul Cadovious. And generally the Danish Furniture Index is a reliable source, especially when they don't credit an auction house for their information, as in this case they do not. http://aleph-01.kb.dk/F/XL5V71EJ2XQC6H71HDCQQYBBX5VN9GH1FP63PFV9EA7963K9...
