| Lots more where that came from.... In regards to the Número ottoman, yes I have seen the whole set (pictured) in a thrift shop about 15 years ago so they do exist, I didn't know he designed it at the time. There is no doubting the popularity and beauty of grant Featherston's furniture, but I must admit that I prefer Meadmore and Gordon Andrews (see pic below). I just love the combination of steel rod and timber. For those who are interested, other designers include Dario Zoureff, Schulim Krimper, Rosando Bros, Fler, Danish De Luxe, Douglas Snelling, Hans He ... | |||||

| ... day, and although no-one knew why they were there, a couple people told me that they didn't think they were trash. Well, I went back today on my lunch hour and they were STILL there (How this is possible, I don't know, as its literally a half a block away-on the same side of the street as a big well picked thrift shop.) This time I went inside and asked everybody in the place. The person in charge told me that they had been there for a few days, no-one knew where they had come from and I was free to take them. They acted like I was doing them a favor ta ... | |||||
| SPOILER ALERT: Saw it... | 1 Relevance | 15 years ago | reactcreative | General discussion | |
| SPOILER ALERT: Saw it... SPOILER ALERT: Saw it yesterday in Chicago @ Gene Siskel. Very interesting film. I thought it was well put together, and learned a lot of things I didn't know before. I did think they left out some significant portions, but made up for it by other interesting facts. Some attention to the non-attribution of the other designers who worked at the office on the pieces not being "The Eames Office' - and instead "Charles Eames". No mention of Harry Bertoia, no Marilyn Neuhart (though a lot of John) - and no mention of how Eames came t ... | |||||

| yes yes tynellbuyer | 1 Relevance | 15 years ago | Orleans USA | General discussion | |
| yes yes tynellbuyer I think I actually like the concept of the chair more than the actual design. It's concept is similar to painting a design on a shell chair... I actually didn't know how to spell Ed Hardy...until I looked on my t-shirt ha! jk | |||||

| Good advice | 1 Relevance | 15 years ago | Brent | General discussion | |
| Good advice Tktoo, thanks for the good suggestions. Should I proceed, I'll use them. Lunchbox, I think you're right. I'll be looking for a used Generation chair. I've been researching the chair, and I didn't appreciate how functional it is until now. It seems to be just what I'm looking for. | |||||

| ... with it. You're getting your panties in a bunch because we actually wanted more than that and came here seeking information. What you call certainty is ridiculous, and you know it. In a court of law it would be dismissed as weak circumstantial evidence and opinion. It added more information but clarified nothing beyond what Arbuck had for Nelson in 1958 - if we take Straylights word for it. (Since he hasn't posted anything from the 1958 catalogue) But certainty is not saying a 1958 catalogue proves someone didn't design something in 1950. Certainty is not ... | |||||

| okay. I did search google....are you kidding? I forgot I shared my web browser history with you.......... second...How would I know if he didn't produce more than one model of desk??! When you google knoll desk and Richard Schultz desk you get several of these desks popping up so I thought I would ask because it seems there is a grey area in question. I assumed he had made several models of desks... Why would you assume george nelson only made one shape of bubble lamp?... take your fishing analogies else where.

| Fameg history. | 1 Relevance | 15 years ago | jakjest | General discussion | |
| Fameg history. I beleive that the Fameg produces furniture under the licence. At least they are the natural successor on Thonet Mundus company. In fact I've read somewhere over the internet that they are using some of the original vintage machines to bent wood as the technology didn't change much. The history: In 1881 Michael Thonet's sons buy parcel with steam mill. The mill is later adapted to production of furniture. In 1913 Ksawery Wünsche & Co. factory is set up. During the WW2 both factories go under German management. After the war in 1945 the compani ... | |||||
| George Nelson | 1 Relevance | 15 years ago | TinyArmada | General discussion | |
| George Nelson We have to remember where designers got their starts, they often did not start with the dramatic items we know them for today. Remember where Eames and Knoll started - take a look at their first pieces. As for George, it is known he had designers produce for him and he allowed the market to associate the name of the company with he himself. When he worked for Arbuck briefly, that was George's own designs. Know who Harper is? It is important to see all the pieces the designers did and this shows their evolution as designers. If Knoll had stuck w ... | |||||
| Thanks poach... | 1 Relevance | 15 years ago | MerryBlvd | General discussion | |
| Thanks poach... ...that might just be the tip I needed. I'm quite familiar with using fiberglass resin but didn't think of your method until you mentioned it. I was going to use a steel plate screwed into the the undamaged inner ply and epoxy the shock mount to that. Your method sounds better though since fiberglass will be much easier to work with than shearing/forming metal. Thanks | |||||

| I had a lovely Svend & Madsen or Svend Aage Madsen dressing table a while back. Beautiful piece. It didn't have the SH stamp though as I believe it was an earlier piece. I tried to find out more info on the designer but had no luck. There are a few pieces of his work on Deconet (see link) http://www.deconet.com/designer/1500/Svend_Aage_Madsen | |||||
| fruit bowl? | 1 Relevance | 15 years ago | Spanky | General discussion | |
| fruit bowl? The 60s photo I saw was that same size ottoman-like piece but with a huge bowl in it. I also saw in person the base for it and it didn't have cleats or anything for a cushioned piece to sit on or anything on which to anchor a webbing base for a cushion. It was in a friend's shop and I had puzzled over it awhile, then finally asked him about it and he showed me the photo in a book. Anyway, so was the bowl intended for fruit? It seemed pretty huge for that function. Like 32" across, maybe. (Not that I have a clue as to any other function it may ... | |||||
