| Haii, I am sure that it is Olli Borg. My father has a Olli Borg for his reading room and it is same as what I see in your post. He brought Olli Borg from Coja sofa4life which is located near by my house at Ontario. I don’t see any difference from one I have it in house. | |||||

| Yes, that looks good. The comment that one should disregard a classic fixture as "way too common" just doesn't hold water, for me. If that were true, your Eames chairs would have to go, too ! The real difference between the Nelson bubble and the other fixtures I mentioned has to do with the nature of the light that is emitted -- admittedly the more difficult and dodgy aspect of lighting design, in terms of making a choice. But the problem is more or less self-evident when we look at the fixtures. The glowing bubble will spread its light evenly all around ... | |||||

| Think like the Charles and Ray. An Eames desk (authentic or not) will be in several parts with exposed screws. panels, steel angle with pre drilled holes, attached (not welded) x-bracings. This is the main difference between the work of Eames and Saarinen. Saarinen designs are a unified whole (like the Tulip series)while the Eameses celebrate the connections (exposed hardware, rubber shock mounts, etc.). From the picture, your desk steel frame does not have the pre-drilled holes. It looks like a very good looking vintage copy/reproduction. (Maybe?...to b ... | |||||
| Ugh, NO foam from Joann's! | 1 Relevance | 12 years ago | Spanky | General discussion | |
| Ugh, NO foam from Joann's! It is low quality stuff and will lose its resiliancy pretty quickly, plus there's only one density anymore. (They call it high density but it's really not.) Yes, 2" firm is firmer than 2" medium, but not by a lot. You just won't feel as much of a difference when both are only 2" thick. These are not high end chairs. I don't think you need to stick to the original cushion thicknesses unless you really like the look of 2" thick cushions for seat and back. I would do 2" and 3" or even 3" and 4" if the seat depth can handle it. ... | |||||

| Congratulations, Andrew, on this purchase!! I'm a proud owner of a few Eames Loungers from different eras. If one of the options you gave us was a vintage rosewood one in good condition, I certainly would recommend that. However, that's out of the question unless you want to wait for that to come up. I personally have never seen the oiled palisander, so can't comment on that, but I've owned the lacqured version and it's beautiful and maintenance is minimal. Having said that, the leather will make a huge difference though. I personally MUCH PREFER the edelman ... | |||||
| Neurotic Attention: | 1 Relevance | 12 years ago | objectworship | General discussion | |
| Neurotic Attention: So I was looking at my LCM pictured up there and it seemed to me that it might be a little small, so I measured it... at the widest point of the seat it measures 21.75". The 1950 catalog gives this dimension as 22.25", and I have another old LCM that measures 22". A full half inch difference seems like a pretty big variance that I imagine probably indicates something, but I don't know what. I was reading something in this forum recently about how slightly different molds used for the fiberglass shell chairs account for differences in s ... | |||||

| I had noticed that but was thinking in the back of my head that the OP's chair had been reupholstered and that detail was lost. If I'd given it more conscious thought, I would have realized that this kind of change would have been unlikely. The seat also looks less deep, not that we need another difference noted. The type of seat upholstery is enough. So now I submit that the Pearsall chair is a knockoff of the OP's, based solely on the propensity for Pearsall to knock-off others' designs. | |||||
| Liquid hide glue comes in a | 1 Relevance | 12 years ago | tchp | General discussion | |
| Liquid hide glue comes in a bottle. In tests done by Fine Woodworking Magazine, it actually performed better than the traditional hot hide glue made of dissolved granules. I am not sure if it is just as reversible as hot hide glue or not. The difference is that urea is added to liquid hide glue to keep it workable in a liquid form, or at least that is what the magazine said. | |||||

| so, here is the label sticker on the chair... when you google image this company with the words rocking chair many danish rockers show up from the 'retrostart' site. I noticed that mine had 7 rungs on the back so that was the defining difference but have since seen a 182 bramin attributed chair with 7 rungs. I have attached a closeup of the wood...beech right? beech in bogota? it is a direct copy from what I can tell if it is not associated with the bramin chair, thanks for looking/comments welcome | |||||

Again look it up on the Internet. The front seat rail is the most obvious difference. But the arms are also too thick where they meet the rear legs. This is an odd angle for a photo. Take a look at this specimen: http://www.lauritz.com/en/auction/finn-juhl-1912-1989-armstol-bo-72/i199...

| Can't tell species from here. I'd guess the "two-tone" finish discussed above is caused by the difference in stain reception between solid wood and veneered surfaces, and sun fading. (edit- upon closer reading, I guess it was sanded) I have seen a similar contemporary credenza in a formal American-colonial style that had leaf storage in the place of the kneehole. It'll work in a pinch if you're hosting Thanksgiving in a closet or something, it's not hugely practical for general day to day life, but hey... I would guess that having new leaves made would ... | |||||

| I understand your frustration; I stared at that dixie set on eBay for 20min and couldn't spot a significant difference. I just picked up six of these chairs, and they're marked Uldum. They do have the "domed" plugs. If you have any other specific questions, feel free to post here or hit me up via email at michael at themidcenturybeehive dotcom | |||||

| ... the shape of your surface, which will require that shorter boards be used (to match the facets of the frame below), will also present a structural advantage, I think. Any wall built in a curved shape is more self-supporting than a straight wall of the same consruction. The serpentine brick wall of only one brick's width, at Jefferson's early University in Virginia, is an example. I may be comparing apples and oranges: there's a difference between a continuous construction like a masonry wall, and the discontinuous structure of separate boards abutting. ... | |||||

A notable difference is that the rosewood unit I located online has wood panels in the back of all shelves. OUR unit has wood panels in the back of the door-drawer-and desk cabinets only, our shelves are open to the wall in the back (all are finished front and back of course, no visible wood substrate) So although our unit is still disassembled, I thought you might like to see these images of the simi ... | |||||
