| Also, the bolt for the leg I | 1 Relevance | 9 years ago | dhoeffn | Identification | |
| Also, the bolt for the leg I show in the picture, that is the only one like that. The rest of the leg bolts are above the inside wood. It didn't quite hit me as to why there was the odd ball one someone had cut a square of the inside wood out and had that leg bolted above the particle board. Now thinking about it being custom made, maybe they had the wrong length bolt on that one leg and decided to quickly resolve it by cutting back the wood to be able to secure the nut. The bolt does not appear long enough to have ever been above the inside wood, so I thin ... | |||||
| SDR: yes I have taken the cup | 1 Relevance | 9 years ago | leif ericson - Zephyr Renner | Repair | |
| ... what does what. There is another case of a pair of solid teak leaves for a table. I accidentally stored them on top of each other with no air space between. They cupped away from each other after a few weeks. I was very concerned at first but they flattened right back out and stayed that way. I didn't have to do anything. My lathe rotates so I don't need to worry about swing for this sort of thing. | |||||

| well, an image search for the logo didn't turn up anything decipherable other than a reference to Schuko plugs which are widely used in all of Europe. But when I started looking at different arrangements of the letters M, I, and Q, I got somewhere. It's some kind of certification for electrical plugs, probably something to do with safety. IMQ is the order of the letters. It doesn't appear to have anything to do with the designer or manufacturer of a given lamp or fixture. | |||||
| Hi Spanky, | 1 Relevance | 9 years ago | Spanky | General discussion | |
| Hi Spanky, It does indeed say Pirelli on it. I thought I took a photo but I obviously didn't. I am beginning to wonder if this was a Heals made sofa. I turned the sofa on its side to see if there were any identifying marks but unfortunately there is nothing. A complete mystery! Ingrid | |||||
| Thank you both for your | 1 Relevance | 9 years ago | ed_devey | Identification | |
| Thank you both for your comments. cdsilva - fair point, I guess I can't really be 109% sure of it's authenticy. But given it was bought from a highly regarded Eames & mid century dealer and that unstamped chairs are relatively common (quite a few threads about them on this site) I'm pretty comfortable about it being genuine. Weight, shape and apperlarance are all 100% exactly like my other fiberglass shells that are stamped Herman miller. @spanky - good idea re. contacting Vitra. Can't believe I didn't think of that! Thanks both | |||||

| I stripped one of these | 1 Relevance | 9 years ago | Spanky | Repair | |
| I stripped one of these rockers with methylene chloride stripper. I didn't think it was too hard but then I cut my refinishing teeth on early 1900s oak furniture with lots of turned legs and spindles and annoying nooks and crannies. My grandmother's kitchen table and chairs had about a thousand coats of paint on them. Good times! Sanding is not too difficult either. I was dreading the whole job but it all went a lot faster and easier than expected. | |||||
| heh, I just like to google | 1 Relevance | 9 years ago | Spanky | Identification | |
| heh, I just like to google stuff. In this instance, i figured the OP had most likely googled "silkeborg coffee table" which of course didn't yield anything. Since it looked more like it was supposed to hold a cushion, and it seemed about the right dimensions for an ottoman, I went for that. Except I think i just went wide and searched for Silkeborg Made in Denmark, or something--I can't remember now. Anyway, that gave me a bunch of the same labels PLUS a photo of an older one where the CFC was not stylized. (I'm sure i've heard of CFC before but never h ... | |||||

| ... a little dry as the chair is from '75. The crack only runs through the first layer of the inner veneer, not the other four. No crack evidence on the exterior finish side of the panel oranywhere else on the chair. The two front shock mounts were recently replaced (my understanding is that these fail more commonly than the rear two) so it could have been that those came loose and some stress was placed on the ear, though it didn't snap. Looks to have been repaired to the best ability with epoxy, and the chair has perfect buoyancy when sitting in it, no stiffe ... | |||||
| Where did you see that photo? | 1 Relevance | 9 years ago | Spanky | General discussion | |
| Where did you see that photo? It may be possible to find out what the furniture is from the source of the photo itself. I did a quick Google image search of the photo but didn't get anywhere with it, but that doesn't mean it's not out there somewhere. | |||||
| I started a thread a few | 1 Relevance | 9 years ago | Spanky | Repair | |
| I started a thread a few years ago about tall back rockers with cushions, or maybe it was more about weird cushions that people had come up with, I can't remember. It didn't go much of anywhere, though. I just did a google image search for "Wegner rocking chair" and found a few, plus all the other popular high back rocking chairs popped up, too--some with cushions. I think the back of the chair is the most beautiful part so I don't cover that with anything. The seat can feel kind of firm, especially if the weaving is newer and hasn't stretched out yet at ... | |||||

| I have looked through the threads with J16's and I can't find what I am looking for so I thought i'd ask here. I vaguely remember seeing a photo of one on here that had some interesting cushions, maybe a whole pad for the back? Hopefully I didn't imagine it : ) I would love to see it again if it does in fact exist or maybe folks would like to share how they use pillows etc. with their rockers. Thanks! | |||||

My mom didn't purchase it until maybe around 1980, probably at some Danish design store in NYC, but maybe somewhere else.

| Thanks for the product suggestions mgee76. I'm don't think we can get waterlox or MagnaMax here in France, but I'll look for equivalents. This would be the first rosewood top that we've done, so we'll take the plunge with a table that didn't cost too much. I used spray cars a long time ago, and have all the gear. Hoping it won't be too different. Do you think I'll need a different spray tip/nozzle for lacquer? | |||||

| Thank you so much for the reassurance Tktoo. I needed it, since this is pretty far from my comfort zone. Very nice challenge though, I must say, and very rewarding one so far. I have already disassembled it almost completely, cleaned the upholstery, retouched and polished the black coating, and managed to reassemble it again. It is quite a different experience but I didn | |||||
