| ... upholstery and reupholstering it in leather. Here's the thing: If a chair's upholstery is trashed, the difference in price between leather and fabric no longer applies. It doesn't matter whether the unusable upholstery is leather or fabric; either way, the chair will sell for the cost of a good fabric chair minus the cost of fabric reupholstery, NOT for the much higher cost of a good leather chair minus the cost of leather reupholstery. So for the most bang for your buck, find a structurally-good Egg with horribly damaged leather or fabric upholstery, the ... | |||||

| How about a donation every year in his name to Heifer International? It won't take up space in his closet, it won't need to be dusted and treated with kid gloves (Original boxes? Seriously?), it won't be hard to relate to like toys from his Dad's childhood might be, it WILL remind him that he's part of a worldwide community... And by the time he's old enough to read the thank-you cards, he'll see that his gifts have made a real difference. Plus it's tax-deductible. http://www.heifer.org/ | |||||

| Details of the vintage Bertoia Orleans, hey thanks for pointing out the difference in the details between the new, and older Bertoia chair it's good to know. I'll keep my eye out for that. Although I'm a detail oriented person I am not educated on the fine details of midcentury furnishing. I am sure this is the case with many people though. | |||||
| Many variables | 1 Relevance | 16 years ago | Pegboard Modern | General discussion | |
| Many variables They can certainly be sold as-is. They can be sold for more if properly restored. You can sell them to a dealer, sell them through an auction house, sell them on line via eBay or craigslist... You have several options. It all depends on if you are interested in investing more in them and how much effort you want to put into selling them. Where are you located? That can make a difference as to your options and the associated costs. | |||||
| Go with a vintage piece.... | 1 Relevance | 16 years ago | mdcounts | General discussion | |
| ... Much more than a vintage piece of equal or sometimes better quality and craftsmanship! One of the reasons for this is that materials are very expensive today, probably why particle board is used so often!! If you are set on purchasing a quality non-particle board piece check out this site, but be warned, I have seen her sideboards selling in the 3-5 thousand dollar range! http://silicathree.com/danishmidcenturymodern.cfm?sku=sto-sdb-448&catego... PS. Look at the price difference between the newly produced pieces and the vintage ones! Still expensive but s ... | |||||

| I assume that the Wegner rock... I assume that the Wegner rocker is woven the same way as the Wegner Wishbone chairs. What I found difficult about weaving the Wishbones wasn?t the size but the actual pattern. Because the chairs are woven slightly different then the average rush style seat the weaving pattern is slightly different. It looks the same but rather then the traditional figure eight clockwise or counter-clockwise pattern the chairs (as far as I can figure out) are woven symmetrical, or at least in the front. Meaning the right side exactly mirro ... | |||||
| Photo? | 1 Relevance | 16 years ago | NULL NULL | General discussion | |
| Photo? Your photo isn't showing up because it's not on a host website anywhere. The URL for it says which isn't a complete address. Anyway--I don't think 3-ply cord is going to make a huge difference in any chair that was made originally with 2-ply cord. The paper cord I've gotten from Frank's Cane Supplies has been excellent quality. As for the rush-style seats---yes, it does make a difference the bigger you go! The problem is that it's very hard to make a perfect 90 degree turn with the cord at each corner, every time, as you work your way into the c ... | |||||

I could give a toss if my son learns the difference between your pretentious silverware and a plastic spork from Taco Bell. But if he learns to be a whole person who has a respectable balance between focusing on himself and others I will be quite happy. Want to get a little boy something they like? Try Tonka, GI Joes, or Legos. Hell, most little boys would be fine with dead bugs or rocks. Anything else, why not just collect it yourself? Do you think he cares if it's fine or c ... | |||||

| Higher, tho Lloyd: The 3 seat Eames Sofa in basic leather is selling for $9399.00 at Herman Miller's store; it's $7799.00 at Hive, and by adding basic leather at $1200.00, it appears to be $8999.00 with free shipping. That appears to be a $400.00 difference and it's not clear how much tax and shipping HM charges. | |||||

| I have a Cado unit with the wood arms | 1 Relevance | 16 years ago | william-holden-... | General discussion | |
| I have a Cado unit with the wood arms and one difference that I notice is that my arms have absolutely angular crooks-- the arms pictured appear to have slightly rounded arm crooks. Still, it's good looking. The only reason I personally might balk at this one is because of the full-panel back (as opposed to vertical mounting rails). It could look very handsome if you have JUST THE RIGHT SPOT for it, but it could also stick out like a sore thumb. Somehow, I think the railed units look more "united" with the rest of the room. | |||||
| I would have thought as with | 1 Relevance | 16 years ago | HowardMoon | General discussion | |
| I would have thought as with all natural materials you would get a fair amount of variation. There are so many variables within a natural material, the same can be said for timbers like Rosewood which can show a huge difference between once piece of furniture and another. The choice of cut from the original source would also determine the kind of grain pattern that you see. You would also have to factor in the environment the furniture has been stored in for the last 45 years. A table that has been placed next to a sunny window and been used on a daily basis ... | |||||
