| ... had a double-wire rim too. I don't know how many of these Bertoia side chairs that were produced before the design was changed but during the last 6 years, I've only come across two. I've never seen or heard of a Bertoia diamon chair with double-wire rim. Perhaps someone can provide more details reg. this matter? | |||||
| I think the inserts were friction-fit | 1 Relevance | 14 years ago | tktoo | General discussion | |
| I think the inserts were friction-fit originally and that they have a flange on the top side similar to what I would call a "T-nut". If you look closely, I think you'll notice that the outside diameters of the visible portion of the nuts have raised ribs designed to keep them from turning in the holes through the shells. I'm not aware of any epoxy capable of fixing this condition beyond temporarily and, obviously, there is no way to remove the nuts without first removing the upholstery. As I wrote above, attaching new shock mounts to the chairs seems like i ... | |||||

| Anyone can have a shade made. There are lampshade shops all over the world. I can't imagine that much would be saved by buying "in bulk" -- that is, 6 or 8 shades instead of two. And each of you owners might have different fabrics in mind. It is remarkably easy to make a shade. I made my first one recently. You need the top and bottom hoops. To copy a shade you have already, you make a pattern by rolling the shade over the material for one complete revolution, tracing the top and bottom edges as you roll it. Then add a small amount at one end for an ... | |||||

| ... when new and then ages to a golden brown that's very attractive. The other material that would be appropriate is Danish paper cord. This is harder to work with than seagrass, so if you have them redone by a professional you should make sure that that person has done this particular kind of seat in paper cord. I've done them in both materials and aced them with seagrass and failed epicly with paper cord. Just saying. There's also genuine rush, which is the leaves of bullrush plants dried and twisted together, but that's not really used on Danish chairs th ... | |||||

| waffle, you're right--Moroccan rug, unless I'm wrong, of course. Specifically, of the Beni Ourain tribes. They've been very popular for a few years now but mostly you see the white ones with dark lines in a diamond pattern. I like the colorful ones. (Easier to find kilims in these colors! Just watch out that you don't buy one described as vintage wool that is really a new synthetic blend that has been aged with bleach and other stuff that weakens the fibers.) | |||||

| ... right size cover for them (not too big---big means saggy). I paid between 75 cents and $3 for each of mine and spent time cleaning and repainting them. I think they probably are easier to sell if you have covers on them, too. You can get really nice covers in cotton canvas or all-weather plastic mesh from Circa50.com for around $50 each. Lots of colors available. They're steel, not cast iron. Cast iron is too brittle for something like this. Maybe people also associate them with the newer folding butterflies, which I can't stand---cheap, ubiquitous, and ... | |||||

| ... flat on the underside and slightly rounded on the top side---stripped from the outside of bamboo stalks so it has the natural glossy finish with ridged joints every so often. Round reed is the product of some other reedy plant and is round in profile (obviously) and comes in a bunch of diameters. Both have to be soaked in water to soften them up for weaving. To repair existing weaves, you simply pull out the broken strands and weave the new ones in with the ends on the underside (which would be hard to do on these chairs where you can see the backs). The ... | |||||

| ... up nicely. Before I discovered these, I spent around $85 apiece for two custom shades from some online place where you could specify the top and bottom diameters and the height of the shade. I had looked all over for shades and couldn't find any nice drum types anywhere so I bit the bullet and ordered these. They were nice but within a year or two the edge trim started to come unglued. That's about when I happened to go down the lampshade aisle and Target and started kicking myself (though in all fairness, maybe they didn't have nice shades when I was ac ... | |||||

| yes I think I've used both the unlaced and laced cord. I just talked to Frank's last week and they said the laced was smoother, which should make it easier to weave. They sell two diameters of cord. Get the smaller one. Do get the book! It's worth it. It also explains how to do the woven seats with the extra wraps on the sides, like the Wegner CH23 chair below. I have done one of those and it turned out very well. A couple of other things: The front-to-back strands should be a little slack. They'll tighten up as you weave the side-to-side strands. And make s ... | |||||

My purpose is to try to get a maker in the hopes of finding other pieces. I can post more pics if needed. Thanks for any help. Sandra | |||||
