| ... online and posted of Robsjohn's chairs with the mitered 90's and fitted or carved joints ( or jig )of two overlapping radius joinery on the other then mitered joints. My personal opinion would be that the sculpted 90 used on Ziggy's chairs is the more difficult over the mitre joint therefore would predate. But the other joinery on the his chair is of lesser difficulty over the fitted radius joinery of the Robsjohn examples. Still nicely done and feel as though craftsmanship wasn't compromised even though it is a false miter or shaped to look as though rad ... | |||||
| Not convinced by Vitsoe prices for spare parts | 1 Relevance | 6 years ago | Andersen | General discussion | |
| I am the lucky owner of an old Vitsoe 620 with high backrest, in gray cotton, from the mid 70es. Amazing armchair, very comfortable. I have disassembled it completely once for washing it, and I am very happy about the concept and quality of the materials used (the pillows and most of the fabric are still in great conditions) . It also looks very good and it's one of those design one does not get tired of, I think. Now the discussion part. In my chair, one part the upholstery is warn out and broken, so I was very happy when recently Vitsoe launched the new li ... | |||||

| ... shows another name, "RegalMobel", which translates to either "regular furniture" if one word, or "regal furniture" if two words. Funny how a space can make quite a difference in meaning. This along with other name variations found elsewhere indicates that FM decided to change the second word in their branding to target a specific market.

There is a video on youtube on the production of the FJ45 and you can tell that it is definitely Japan https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nULWQ2QCBE4 There is also a Japanese dealer that highlighted the differences between the NV45 and OC45.

| They are not Eames. There are tons of photos of Eames shell chairs online so it will be easy to compare yours to authentic ones and spot the differences. Theirs is one of the most copied chairs of that era because they were so practical for schools and other institutions. As to whether yours are a flea market treasure: yes, if you were hoping to get a set of colorful mid-century era chairs for your kitchen for dirt cheap. If you were looking for a set of authentic Eames chairs for dirt cheap, then no. | |||||

| Your chair looks similar to the Sergio Rodrigues "mole" chair but there are some differences,especially the way the straps are attached to the frame. With all those screws maybe it was a "knockdown" version? I am not an expert on woods but a lot of brasilian furniture used Jacaranda. lexi. | |||||

Could you not just shave it all off for the moment; your hair that is ! The shop assistants in my local supermarket are my new best friends.

| ... And in my 1962 catalog very many things, especially the case pieces were available in either veneer or solid teak. I believe that solid teak for him started by listening to the requests of his American military buyers who were pragmatic and had the money to afford it. As to the wall system, I was not aware of this as an Aasbjerg wall system, but he was effectively a custom shop and he could decide to design something new or do custom work because he maintained a close relationship with the customers. The evidence I see on the receipt suggests that it w ... | |||||
| RE: Niels Moller Chairs 80 Copy? | 1 Relevance | 5 years ago | Kyle Barrett | Identification | |
| Yes, definitely Lubke. They also had a nice seagrass backed version. But putting them near and 80 you can see the difference in design and why I think all Møller designs are so much more attractive. The back legs on these up through the stile are all perpendicular and just lean off at the top. Whereas with all Møller designs, and plenty of other Danish designs the legs splay so rather than ever being perpendicular they're at 75 degrees rather than 90 degrees and the lean into the backrest happens much lower in the stile and mirrors or reverses the angle belo ... | |||||

| ... a small bespoke cabinetmaker. One thing that is to be said about the buttons is that historically and in Denmark in 1945 they had a function. Finn Juhl may or may not have designed them in explicitly. But functionally in a fiber filled cushion (perhaps horsehair) the buttons kept the fiber isolated, not clumped into a ball. So on some level the button question was up to a contractor. There has historically been the idea the 4 button chieftains are early because the Guild Exhbition chair was a 4 buttons chair, and while I can’t prove why 4 buttons chiefta ... | |||||

| It looks just like one of the chairs designed by Ernest Race in 1945 in the UK. I am not sure if JG Furniture brought these to the USA or the company made look alikes. There are some similarities & differences in the aluminum profile. JG Furniture Co., Inc. was one of the manufacturers included in the book called Modern Furnishings for the Home originally published in 1952 & reprinted in 1997 (when mid century modern became more mainstream). The book included many of the designs by the likes of Knoll, Herman Miller, Dunbar, Winchendon & others & the best i ... | |||||

| Yes, indeed it does. In a certain sense it makes it that much more Danish, in the sense of danish design belonging to all Danes. This is why the differences between so many Danish designs are much less dramatic than between say American designers. But in this case the maker & designer may have been sailing too close to the wind. | |||||

| ... her compilation of them was well after the fact and mistakes were made. For instance Finn Juhl’s 1959 exhbition booth for Niels Vodder got wrongly credited to Børge Rammeskov for JH Johansen’s (if memory serves). And I think that Herringbone is telling to narrow a story to separate Niels Vodder production. Most of it was literally outsourced to ‘industrial’ shops and in the case of PP Møbler, well they worked for Niels Vodder and for Bovirke. Note that Ejnar Pedersen, the owner of PP, had been Willadsen’s apprentice. The difference between Niels Vodder, Bo ... | |||||
