| we see so many of those ... we see so many of those chairs, most are from the 60's with the round clips. We might have had a few late 50 but there is no difference. the leather is so dry you can crack it with looking at it, A lot of the chairs that come in are from the 70s with the streight clips. The one thing that i always tell every one . that we are trying to save, is the plastic pads we resew and reuse them, as the earlier ones had great air holes, and they truly are impossible to g ... | |||||
| Depends on your size | 1 Relevance | 19 years ago | Pegboard Modern | General discussion | |
| Depends on your size We have been fortunate enough to own or have owned all four of these designs over the years. While they are all comfortable, the biggest difference is your size and how it relates to the chair. My wife and I are both tall, she's 5 foot 11 and I'm over 6 foot 4. She loves the Eames Lounge chair, while I find it comfortable, but a bit too small. The egg chair is quite comfortable IF you get the version that tilts. Without the tilt, I don't find the pitch of the egg chair (or the swan for that matter) very comfortable for long sits. Being a ... | |||||
| Yes, we have light!! | 1 Relevance | 19 years ago | ~L | General discussion | |
| ... lamp stores had plain old uninteresting fixtures, which was why everytime I was overseas, I couldn't get enough of furniture and lighting stores. I decided on a Poulsen PH5 in white. Originally I planned on purchasing it from DWR when they had their 10% sale and found out I had to wait until January for delivery!!! Searched on line and found Y-Lighting, and even without the 10% DWR discount there was a +/- $2 difference in price and I was able to get delivery within days. The lamp was installed today and it lookes fantastic! Just perfect for the space ... | |||||

| OK....let's leave it at that Lucifersum said: I dont disagree that the price of the ESU is high, I just dont find that a valid excuse for buying a knock-off - no matter how well it's made. ----------------------- OK...looks like you've got your opinion and either you just disagree with my and LRF or don't quite see the difference....perhaps a bit of both. Hopefully we can still be friends... | |||||
| Herman Miller vs. Vitra | 1 Relevance | 19 years ago | barrympls | General discussion | |
| Herman Miller vs. Vitra Since Vitra makes some of the Herman Miller pieces and considering their long association, I doubt that there would be much difference between a piece made by Herman Miller and a piece made by Vitra. There MIGHT be some different fabric coverings, though. Getting back to the 670/671 Lounge Chair and Ottoman. I can recall if it was ever offered in vinyl. I believe it was always available in leather from the get-go. However, like the George Nelson Coconut Chair (which is currently made only by Vitra and is stupidly only sold in black ... | |||||

| ... someone uses these words, I find the rudeness theres been lately more of an irritation. Anyway, jews and gays and modernism, representing half of the equation and having been on inimitate terms with the other half (but not with Matisyahu, sadly) theres 2 factors I think that cause a bit of an over-representation (magnified by the lens of difference, to quote someone ) in the art and design sub-cultures, a sense of alienation and a little extra time or money on our hands. I can only speak for myself but the 3 piece suite in a shopping mall serenaded by t ... | |||||
| Want a super clean Eames lounge? | 1 Relevance | 19 years ago | Pegboard Modern | General discussion | |
| ... 670/ 671 were originally made exclusively with down filled cushions. At some point in the '70s. They started using the foam filling while still offering the down filling as an upgrade. Not sure when that stopped, but I've never seen a set produced in the 1980s with either down filling or the upgraded "ambassador" leather. Also, you know the difference in the cushion clips: Pre-1971 they are round and just 2 per cushion, post 1971, they are rectangular and 3 per cushion. http://www.pegboardmodern.com | |||||
| Actually it is way more complicated | 1 Relevance | 19 years ago | Modern Love | General discussion | |
| ... the seller imported and wants to resell in a different currency other than his/her own, the seller's margin can fluctuate significantly with the currency exchange rate. For example, lets say the year is 2002. And I am seller in Canada, and bought a lamp from the US on eBay for $10 USD. At that time the US dollar was worth alot more than the Canadian dollar. The exchange rate is $1 USD = $1.40 Canadian, so the lamp cost me $14 Canadian Dollars. I want to have a 50% profit margin on it so, I want to sell the lamp at $28 Canadian Dollars. If I had an American ... | |||||

It is Chrome but not cheap. On this one it is hard to tell any difference, I would save my money and go with furniture fancy | |||||

| Modernica debate | 1 Relevance | 19 years ago | whitespike | General discussion | |
| Modernica debate I don't want to debate this for long. I can say I have have been around their products extensively. Like what was mentioned earlier, they diD make HM's ESU units for a while. If it's good enough for HM to buy why isn't it good enough for you? All that I am trying to say is that Modernica's version is quality and I don't think you will be disappointed. I will say that HM's quality is a little better on these, but Modernica's is still pretty outstanding. I haven't experienced ModernWoodWorks. "no difference than that stuff that comes from Chin ... | |||||

| Come on! I think it's fine... Come on! I think it's fine to disagree -- keeps things interesting. There should be no ruffled feathers. My only point was that there is is some gray area here. For Example, when Ford reintroduces the Thunderbird a few years back, and it looks like a bastardization of the 55-56-57 T-birds, BUT, is made by the same company with licensing to the brand -- you are paying for the brand, not the essence of the article itself. Or when a perfumer changes some key ingredient to a flagship fragrance, but is still the creator/licensed dist ... | |||||

| There IS a dfference There IS a difference between finely crafted ESU units from Modern Woodworks and the low-quality Chinese-made assembly-line knockoffs Nelson benches being sold on eBay and from Furniture Fancy, etc. Since the Eames Foundation people haven't actively 'gone after' Modern Woodworks, and apparently he's a craftsman down in Louisiana trying to make a living, I don't think anyone who buys from him would have to feel the need to turn themselves over to the Federal authorities..... But....in my suggested list of terms (Original, Reproduction, Kn ... | |||||
