| The only similarities I see | 1 Relevance | 9 years ago | cdsilva | Identification | |
| The only similarities I see between your chair and the KK 31 chairs are 1) turned front legs, and 2) exposed tops of front legs. Based on those criteria, half of Danish chairs could look like KK. In fact, I see many more differences than similarities between the bases, including: 1) only front legs turned for yours, all four legs turned for KK 31, 2) side rails of your chairs constant depth, tapering depth of side rails for KK 31, 3) side rails part of back leg and backrest side frame for your chairs, side rails independent for KK 31, 4) front leg tops highe ... | |||||
| Pearsall Sofa?? | 1 Relevance | 13 years ago | NULL NULL | General discussion | |
| hey all, I came across a CL listing and was curious. I've seen this sofa attributed to Adrian Pearsall over and over again but I cant seem to find any record of this being one of his designs, the closest thing I've seen is the 2404-s and even then the differences seem to far out weigh the similarities. I'm not in the market for a sofa right now but I always check CL (just in case...:), its a sickness. lol.) Anyway i thought i would see if any of you had any idea. maybe this Thanks again. | |||||
| American vs Scandinavian | 1 Relevance | 13 years ago | Richard Tanimura | General discussion | |
| Background: I know Scandinavian modern/MC pretty well. Know nothing about American/German/Dutch/Italian MC. I am pretty well steeped in Scandinavian moder/mid-century design. I would welcome an open-ended discussion about the differences between us and where you think we might be heading? | |||||
| bauhaus Breuer desk | 1 Relevance | 13 years ago | earlymorning | General discussion | |
| Hi, just found this nice bauhaus desk - definately an old piece - very heavy, solid costruction. Looks like a desk from the Marcel Breuer S285 series, but the recent ones (which I can find any info on) have some differences to this one. What do you say ? | |||||
| There are different varieties | 1 Relevance | 9 years ago | Spanky | Identification | |
| There are different varieties of teak trees, too, and it stands to reason that newer furniture is made from something other than the true teak genus. Leif will probably know. You can look at a zillion samples on http://www.hobbithouseinc.com/personal/woodpics Also, check out afrormesia which I can't tell from teak without looking up the differences every time, and even then sometimes not. And yes, oxidation. As for webbing, I have seen narrower Pirelli webbing a few times. I always thought it looked like it had been hand cut since the widths weren't ... | |||||

Basic knowledge about upholstery in general will help, and that's something you can pick up by studying furniture that you do have access to--in furniture stores, in friends' and family's homes, etc. Buy a yard each of Hallingdal and Tonus fabric, two of the most popular fabrics used on Egg chairs, and study the colorways on Maharam.com so that you can recognize original fabrics on Egg chairs. (1stDibs is not a good place to research prices but it's great for clear detail photos of furniture, including fabr ... | |||||

Of course the one I could get a bit out of I'm keeping forever... so I got an unidentified lounge chair with bentwood frame, a Greaves and Thomas recliner chair that no longer reclines and an as yet unidentified leather (and possibly Jacaranda) sling chair. Possibly a Mole chair attributed to Sergio Rodrigues but there are quite a few differences. Mine seems to be able to knockdown ... | |||||

| ... information, and where there are no cartels or monopoly. The auction market, and furniture market, sure do not fulfill these requirement. Participants in the furniture market do not have the same information when it comes to where to find an object. A chieftain on ebay or a real estate sale, lets say in Anchorage, do not cost as much as if it is sold on Artcurial/Piasa. This is because these auction houses have certain clients, clients that are not well informed that the same object could be found at smaller, less well known auctions/market places. Same thi ... | |||||
| Help Danish Chair Teak Wood black leather 60's : Kirkegaard or not Kirkegaard ? | 1 Relevance | 14 years ago | Julien | General discussion | |
| Hi Guys ! I need your help and your expertise to know if the chair I have is an original Erik Kirkegaard or another danish designer ! I checked out on the internet and found it very similar with the Kirkegaard Model 34 but I can see a few differences : the seat base is thiner on mine, and the lateral bars are a bit lower than they seem to be on the original model. I can't find any label or sticker or stamp underneath the seat base, I'm completely lost ! Thanks in advance for your help ! Cheers Julien | |||||

| I'm getting overwhelmed. I'm looking for lower bases for two Eames armchairs I have, I think I like the cats cradle or low rod (are they the same?) but then someone threw out LAX and MAX as options. I haven't found very many good descriptions of the differences, any thoughts? I plan on arranging them in my living room like the picture! | |||||
| Hey Spanky, | 1 Relevance | 9 years ago | keaton | General discussion | |
| Hey Spanky, Thanks for the explanation. I never quite knew there were so many technical differences between boucl̩s (and, by extension, probably between most other fabric categories). You are 100% correct regarding Mt. Stuart's structural make-up. On Place's website it states that it's '[w]oven from a lofty boucle yarn that runs in both the warp and fill direction (...). Mt. Stuart is identical on both sides.' Agreed that the Dedar fabric has a finer texture, that's how I look at it as well. On the images at least I like the overall appearance nonetheless. I ... | |||||

I can take photos when I get home tonight to show you an example, though there may be some on the boards. Second, if you choose to refinish them, they are solid wood and not veneer. So you can use a random orbital sander on most areas (100 grit or 150 grit) and then hand sand the other areas. The spindles are a giant pain in the ass and my husband used a mini belt sander to do them, which worked quite well. Third, they are made f ... | |||||

| ... realize $20. Or less. Danish Modern furniture was very popular from the mid-50s through the 60s, but then like many styles its popularity began to wane. Furniture manufacturers kept using teak but they started to cut corners design-wise, using more plinth bases and standard-looking drawer pulls, dimensional lumber for arms and legs instead of sculpted or even just round, tapered parts, etc. That's what you see showing up in the mid-70s. By the 80s it was out there in force. More and more of it was made in Asia. Once you start to study the early Dani ... | |||||
