	... being one of the nicest Danish sofa designs out there.A friend bought the set and it's so damn comfortable and nicely made. I know the owner Anton chased up Arne Vodder and others to have certain pieces re-made.He was shocked many designers were still about including the original manufacturers.Arne could not initially understand why he wanted to start making them again but eventually loved the idea.Unfortunately Arne has since passed a couple years back. Anyway with some items like desks and sideboards I did notice the difference in quality to the vintage p ...

	Well knock Me over and call me betsy! I already have a set of 720 chairs and have just not seen the wood for trees. I will put them next to each other tomorrow and you will see the difference.

	... Hans Olsen entirely. So there must be other, more dramatic differences I am not catching in your photos. Can you post a few more photos to better draw out the difference? edit: one minor point I glossed over: the below advert shows the chair with a padded back rest, but one can find the same model without the padded backrest, so I am not counting it as a difference.

	OLB, I'd look on you tube at... OLB, I'd look on you tube at videos showing the differences between the fakes and authentic Le Corbusier and Barcelona chairs, etc. I think it would be somewhat the same. Quality of leather, stitching, welding, end caps, chrome versus cheaper base metala. I imagine it would be a hard thing to buy on line well. The difference between good leather and bad can not be felt on line.

	... changed the shape of the 71 and 55 chairs (probably other too). The story I've read is that the factory burn down, so they got all new tooling. Anyway, in the earlier medallion mark era, looking at the front of the 71, there is a bit more curve as the legs merge into the backrest. In that era Møller seems to have been less constant about affixing the medallions, so yours may not be marked. If they do happen to have the later stamped mark, I am entirely wrong. But I don't think so. I look at both eras of these chairs all the time, so I've gotten to be able ...

	... whether the shell with no markings was a zenith shell or not. It is generally understood that the "3rd generation Zenith" shells have the three small embossed dots in a small triangular pattern centered between the shock mounts. If the chair has no embossments at all, then it is still pretty early, but probably not Zenith production. This is all consistent with the 55-57 dates we figured out above. And also consistent with the dates for the 1956 swivel glides lounge base. But I guess its still possible that the chair could be as early as 54, but that is a ...

	Obelisk	1 Relevance	13 years ago	SDR	General discussion
	Obelisk is remarkably close to the pattern I described, back in 2004. The difference is that the pieces I saw and handled had perfectly cylindrical handles, as opposed to the flattened cylinder of Obelisk. As such, it surprised me how well they handled (lots of 'handles' in this paragraph). I'm sure that Obelisk feels just great . . .
	objectworship	1 Relevance	13 years ago	Eameshead	General discussion
	objectworship A recent ebay LTR find arrived with these same rounded corners to the base. I had not noticed the corner difference until I had it in hand and placed it next to the others. As you say, it is clearly not a copy. The top and label (and age of the zinc base) all look identical to my other solid core LTRs. But I have to say that I am still quite relieved to see another example. I agree with woody-- I still prefer the look of the harder corner version. But it's almost more fun to stumble upon yet another manifestation of this great table. Perhaps so ...

	Page Cut Off Do you have more of that page from the book chairs by george nelson? I see the word "olsen" cut off... also noticed a spelling difference in the word olsen. Possibly correct, possibly because olsen is a more american spelling, olson would be more scandinavian, and the original editor being american might not have noticed that. not sure. really want to see that entire page....particularly the cut off parts! lol.

	Arkana	1 Relevance	13 years ago	pauline stroosnijder	General discussion
	Arkana There is no difference between Bath and Falkirk. The offices were based in Bath, but , presumably for tax reasons, the factory was based in Falkirk. For those interested in Arkana, I have set up a Facebook page in appreciation of Arkana, feel free to check it out. As far as I can remember, it must have been produced around 1968-1973. The chair is called Chelsea. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Arkana-Furniture/529770360387844
	bshop22	1 Relevance	13 years ago	NULL NULL	General discussion
	bshop22 "Institutional Quality" shells are not uncommon and in fact are probably more common since they were used in institutions (e.g. schools, churches, offices, etc.) in large quantities. What's not clear to me is if there was an actual difference in the shell quality between those marked as "Institutional Quality" and those produced and/or sold for other applications.
