| Wegner-esque | 1 Relevance | 14 years ago | HV_Dave | General discussion | |
| Wegner-esque Yes, I'd agree that both items have similarities to some of Wegner's pieces, but there's differences (size of handle space on ottoman and those two rails on the chairs). It has me stumped. | |||||
| I don't have any first hand... | 1 Relevance | 14 years ago | cdsilva | General discussion | |
| I don't have any first hand... I don't have any first hand knowledge about the Jensen rocker construction differences between the domestic Danish and overseas US models. It's more of an educated guess based upon manufacturing strategies at the time. Both France and Son and Selig (or rather their uncredited manufacturers) designed many pieces that disassembled for cheaper shipping. Many pieces do not even require any tools to assemble, yet are still very sturdy 50yrs later. | |||||
| The pine | 1 Relevance | 14 years ago | SDR | General discussion | |
| The pine looks nice. Apply film finish to make cleaning easier. This will, however, bring out the differences in the boards, the knots, etc -- perhaps making it too "busy" for you. 1" pine will be as strong as your 1 3/4" solid-core door -- or at least, plenty strong enough for a desk. Don't worry. Or -- get a new door, and pick a nice color of plastic laminate ? Be sure to laminate or finish both sides . . . | |||||

| Here's a similar one Saw this on Etsy and I emailed the seller but he doesn't know who designed this chair. Some small differences but seller said he had it reupholstered in black leather. | |||||

| Reproduction bases | 1 Relevance | 14 years ago | NULL NULL | General discussion | |
| Reproduction bases There are a number of sellers on eBay and probably elsewhere that offer reproduction bases at lower prices. I can not speak to the quality or differences in details of all of them, but at the very least, they will fit and provide the look you are going for. | |||||

| wow! Thank you for your reply. These lamps look almost the same with minor differences. It can be a replica or modification. | |||||
| Here's a link to an article that explains | 1 Relevance | 14 years ago | Spanky | General discussion | |
| Here's a link to an article that explains the differences between finishes and brands, including Watch Danish oil and Watco Teak oil. It doesn't say whether they're better or worse for the wood than other finishes, and it doesn't say anything about straight up teak oil (if there is such a thing). I use Star-Brite brand teak oil, which in my area is sold at Ace Hardware stores and marine supply stores. It doesn't seem to have much, if any, solvent in it. It smells like oil, not mineral spirits. I have used wiping varnish on teak when I want a certain look ... | |||||
| As is often the case . . . | 1 Relevance | 14 years ago | cdsilva | General discussion | |
| As is often the case . . . . . . I think I stumbled across the answer to my own question while actually looking for something else. I came across a listing for 5 "Copenart by Morganton" chairs that very closely resemble the ones I saw. The primary visible differences are 1) the seat rails on the Copenart are not X-framed, and 2) the side stretchers slope in the opposite direction. Other than than, the chair components appear to be of similar size, shape, and cross-sectional profile. I believe Drexel acquired Morganton Furniture company in 1957, so these chai ... | |||||
| modernica cats cradle base | 1 Relevance | 14 years ago | Eameshead | General discussion | |
| modernica cats cradle base I bought two cat's cradle bases from Modernica a year ago. They look right once on the chair, and seem to function OK. But when viewed from the side, the mounts on the Modernica base are at a very different angle than the original mounts. They line up "flat" -- as if on the same imaginary plane. The front and rear mounts on the original cats cradle are at different angles. Also the screw holes are enormous and lozenge shaped (probably to account for the subtle differences in shock mount positions that sometimes occur from chair to ... | |||||

| Here are some images from... Here are some images from the catalog. Your sofa appears to be very similar to the 1955 U-150 model. Not sure if this model was refined in subsequent years. Unfortunately, there is no rear photo provided of the U-150, so I included one of the armless U-250. The differences I see are: 1) different profiles for rear wood members. 2) exposed wood fasteners in your sofa 3) the seating upholstery (although yours may not be original) Dimensions are provided in the drawing, so you could always check against that. | |||||
| Not Herman Miller | 1 Relevance | 14 years ago | artsnot | General discussion | |
| Not Herman Miller Those don't look too much like the Herman Miller swoop chair to me. There are quite a few obvious differences. The arms don't curve, the top of the back is too straight, and the legs aren't tubular metal. Not sure what those chairs are. | |||||
| Krueger shells, which look... | 1 Relevance | 14 years ago | OMM | General discussion | |
| Krueger shells, which look... Krueger shells, which look similar to HM shells, have screws/bolts that come directly out of the bottom of the chair. They are generally marked as Krueger Metal Products and include Green bay Wisconsin as their origin. Krueger chairs are commonly mistaken for HM by many people not familiar with their differences, but if you look at the two side by side you will notice obvious things like the shape of the top of the shell is more squared on a Krueger and the bolts/screws under the chairs are almost always directly attached to the ... | |||||
