| Teak Dining Chair ID | 2 Relevance | 13 years ago | lexi221 | General discussion | |
| I have a set of 6 of each chair. The set on the left has been in the family since new(recovered)- the set on the right was recently aquired. There are slight differences between them - both are constructed in the same manner. The chairs on the left are marked K.S. Made in Denmark - which let me to believe they are an attributed design to Kai Kristiansen produced by Korup Stolefabrik. The chairs on the right have the fabric under the chairs so I dont know if they say this. Any help with an ID for the chairs on the right would be appreciated. Thank you | |||||
| Hans Olsen Dining Set for Frem Rojle Danish | 2 Relevance | 15 years ago | daddyobob | General discussion | |
| Does anyone know if this set was remade or is in contemporary production? I have a unfinished maple set with 2 removable leafs. The 3 leg chair bottoms are also blocked in the corners as opposed to having the glued and stapled bottom plate (no screws). thanks. Also, included with the set was an original from FREM so the differences are visible. It is very cool anyway | |||||
| Help: need to know differences between "antique" Tulip chair by Saarinen + Le Corbusier Lounger and reproductions | 2 Relevance | 18 years ago | K.C. | General discussion | |

| ID Danish Dining Chairs | 2 Relevance | 10 years ago | danfresh | Identification | |
| Hi all, I need help identifying a set of six (6) Danish dining chairs. Four of the chairs in the set have no arm rests, two have arm rests. There are no photos of the chairs without the arm rest (apologies). They are stamped with BM (Brande Mobilindustri), however they don't appear to be designed or attributed to Kurt Ostervig/Henry Rosengren Hansen/Hans Olsen, or any other designer for BM for that matter. They look very similar to Niels O Moller and Henry Rosengren Hansen, but there are some differences in the design that you may notice. Thanks! | |||||
| Construction differences on Nelson/Miller platform benches | 2 Relevance | 12 years ago | Stephen Pruitt | General discussion | |
| ... clear to me that Miller changed their manufacturing methods quite a bit over the years. I'm wondering if these changes are due to the ages of the pieces or possibly the place of manufacture, or possibly something else entirely. Among the significant differences I've noted are these: 1. Dowels versus nails on the middle support slats. It seems that the majority of the the Miller/Nelson benches have dowel pegs down the middle and around the outside edges. But, strangely, some have TWO sets of dowels down the middle su ... | |||||
| Møller #55 age and production differences | 2 Relevance | 13 years ago | leif ericson - Zephyr Renner | General discussion | |
| I have Arne Hovmand Olsen designed #55 Møller chairs from two different times. And surprise! they aren't built the same. I've never read about this fact so I thought I'd share in case it isn't well known. I am not sure about the precise ages of the chairs, but the newer ones date to 1970s with reasonably certainty based on the former owner's recollection. And the I think are probably older, late 1950s or 1960s because: 1. that was when they were most popular 2. the construction is more complicated, and the producer's tendency is to simplify. The differenc ... | |||||
| before/after and dining chair ID Ulferts? | 2 Relevance | 14 years ago | cdsilva | Identification | |
| ... sound, especially for how light the chair was. The main reason for buying the chair was the low cost and the chance to see how well it could be cleaned up. With no markings on the chair, it took quite a number of google searches along the lines of "danish dining chair" to come across photos of a very similar (although not identical) chair designed by Tage Olofsson for Ulferts, a Swedish manufacturer in Tibro. The similarities are: 1) same frame member alignment, 2) same frame member profiles, 3) the subtle curve of the seat frame between the back of seat an ... | |||||
| Finn Juhl 138 lounge chair design differences? | 2 Relevance | 14 years ago | Scandiman | General discussion | |
| Based on my research, I believe that I have a pair of Finn Juhl 138 lounge chairs. They both have the round France & Sons metal stamp. My questions relates to the method in which the backrest is attached to the chair frame. On my chairs, there is a small pin that screws directly into the side of the back rest to support it to the main frame (second photo). On other chairs that i've seen, there is simply a large visible bracket that screws into the rear of the backrest (last photo). Does anyone know why there are two different designs? What is the original ... | |||||
| There are differences | 2 Relevance | 12 years ago | Ananke | General discussion | |
| There are differences I know I am resurrecting an old thread, and as a new member too! I did however come across this thread when I was looking to buy my coffee table and feel the following adds to the topic: The Vitra model has a bevelled glass edge, and the signature is on the underside of the glass surface on the corner opposite the long edge along with the words 'Vitra Design Museum'. The base has no marking. I believe the Herman Miller version has a flat cut edge, the signature is on the edge of the glass (better place to put it in my opinion); and I be ... | |||||

| I have noticed some differences in fiber content, | 2 Relevance | 13 years ago | tktoo | General discussion | |
| I have noticed some differences in fiber content, but have seen similar variance in HM versions, too. I think that mostly had to do with how the chopped-fiber mats were processed at that particular plant and time, and the individual working on the line, though. Variations in color consistency and sheen would depend on the resin/batch mix and the condition of the mold. I'm not aware that either Vitra or HM shells were ever top-coated. I don't think I've ever heard anyone complain about "too much sheen" on an unaltered vintage shell before, but a ScotchBrite p ... | |||||

| Okay, so I have noticed a few differences | 2 Relevance | 14 years ago | danielmpoole | General discussion | |
| Okay, so I have noticed a few differences My rosewood desk has the same pedestal fittings as yours and there are also metal brackets in each corner which strengthen the legs, like yours. My teak desk has a different pedestal fitting, two central fixings which mean the drawers/pedestal can sway unless held in place by the vanity board. I presume this is an earlier model? Both desks have the France & Son badge on the underside, in the middle. The teak desk does not have the metal leg brackets, which mean the legs are all loose. Not ideal. Both desks have the d ... | |||||
| Um, sorry to disagree | 2 Relevance | 15 years ago | Pegboard Modern | General discussion | |
| Um, sorry to disagree But I'm fairly certain that is incorrect. I've seen a number of these chairs over the years. The first time was in December of 1999 in the booth of an art dealer at an art fair in NYC. I asked the dealer if they knew the designer as I recognized the Mart Stam/ Marcel Breuer/ Mies influence, but I though the reversed cantilever was pretty wild. They are also very well constructed. The told me their designer had purchased them for the gallery many years ago, but did not know the designer. I saw them again later in shops in NY, Chicago and ... | |||||
