	Thats because the OP's chair	1 Relevance	15 years ago	HowardMoon	General discussion
	Thats because the OP's chair is a France & Son design Spanky. It borrows heavily from the Grete Jalk chair but with some noticeable differences.
	Not Milo Baughman	1 Relevance	15 years ago	artsnot	General discussion
	Not Milo Baughman Assuming that this is the Milo Baughman piece referred to, you can rule it out. The differences are quite obvious, as can be seen here. http://www.assemblageltd.com/itemdetails.php?id=508847
	Might be	1 Relevance	15 years ago	straylight	General discussion
	Might be Might be ikea or someone similar. One of my back burner projects is to do a identification guide for the various mid-century copies of this stool. Right off the top of my head I can think of at least half a dozen producers of something which looked remarkably like a A Aalto stool in the period from 1936 - 1969 each one with its own subtle differences. Not to mention the differences between the Finnish, Swedish and American production of the stools.
	Not too bad	1 Relevance	15 years ago	TinyArmada	General discussion
	Not too bad Thanks for the help. The Evolux lines certainly share the same desired result profile wise. With Evolux there are a lot of differences and no shared identical components, but great lamps. The M.G. Wheeler sockets, top enameled metal piece all match Wheeler in that category, along with too many other details to think it could be anything else. - A.S.
	Agreed	1 Relevance	15 years ago	NULL NULL	General discussion
	Agreed It's certainly possible that this table was originally offered with metal or wood legs. I note the differences in the cross-bars as well. Perhaps Eames/Evans were just messing around. Were these ever sold in a catalog?

	So who was the first to turn... So who was the first to turn the quatrefoil shape into a pattern? I have to admit I have never seen the quatrefoil as a fabric pattern before Girard. Prior to Girard I have only seen the quatrefoil in three dimensional form, architectural or sculptural, more elaborate in shape and much larger in size. The Girard quatrefoil is also different from most in that it is turned on it's axis into more of an X shape. And I don't recall seeing the quatrefoil used as a tiny repeating pattern before Girard. So I'd be curious to see ...
	Wonderful !	1 Relevance	14 years ago	SDR	General discussion
	Wonderful ! I'd like to flag this thread -- VIPP (very important plywood project). Thanks for the good photos -- and the alternate in drawing form. Note carefully the differences and similarities between the two designs. If I were making the photographed chair, I'd consider splining or doweling the stub ends of the central cross-piece, through the leg frames, making a sturdy and permanent structure, independent of the seat and back panels. The alternate would be to half-notch both (all three) parts, thus weakening them all. I can't tell from the photos wha ...
	Looks like yours	1 Relevance	14 years ago	Spanky	General discussion
	... of the front rail. I just redid two of these and I think that's where they were marked. The wood and the finish on these chairs isn't as nice as a Wegner chair. It's hardwood but it's always got a walnut stain that looks like stain, plus a glossy lacquer finish that shows every little scratch and scuff over the years. But if you get one that isn't too beat up, it can look pretty good. There are differences in the frame styling from the Wegner chair, too.
	Interesting ...	1 Relevance	15 years ago	kav	General discussion
	... contains a little pure tung oil added to linseed oil. The oil mixture is then mixed with varnish and mineral spirits. Finally, there is "Danish Oil" which is again a mixture of linseed oil, varnish and mineral spirits. See a pattern here? In other words, Tung Oil Finish, Teak Oil and Danish Oil are virtually identical. The differences are based on marketing, not performance. If the table is veneer and I can't sand through the sun damage can I use "Danish Oil" with a teak color for the lighter pieces? Thanks -Kav.
	Still a mystery?	1 Relevance	15 years ago	terryt	General discussion
	Still a mystery? I looked very closely at my chairs again and today I do see some slight differences in the design from the Dunbar version. The placement of the underseat support bar is approximately 2" behind the reverse cantilever front (in the image from the Dunbar catalogue the bar appears to be in direct line of the front base. The chair does not tip forward at all as it seems to be very well balanced. In the past I have sat in chairs that tip forward and feel unsafe which I am not sure if the Dunbar version does. The weight of my chair is 24.5 lbs. ...
	Painting fibreglass is not...	1 Relevance	15 years ago	ball	General discussion
	Painting fibreglass is not... Painting fibreglass is not unlike painting your car, there really are no differences except that fibreglass is easier to repair should you have any marks or defects. Try a fine cutting compound first, the same as you would for your car. If that doesn't work try your local spray painters but one that cares as much about your chair as you obviously do.
	and what about....	1 Relevance	15 years ago	Eameshead	General discussion
	and what about.... I have some chairs with: Circle S and small triangles No Circle S, just two LARGER triangles, but NO embossed HM logo of any kind. These same chairs also have paper patent number labels. Any specific dates or differences associated with either of these? Thanks in advance for any info.

	Yes, I know how to google... Yes, I know how to google for pics myself... OK, what I'm specifically after is: a) backside of sitting cushion (placement of zipper) b) lower cushion with wedge (shape differences?) c) side/back cushions (placement of zippers) Pictures of the above are hard to locate. Hope that clarifies it.

	Thayer Coggin made something... Thayer Coggin made something similar, the arms seem different to yours and the camera angle differences dont help with the ID so Ive attached an image for you to compare.
	I don't think Quistgaard	1 Relevance	15 years ago	glassartist	General discussion
	I don't think Quistgaard would do that to us. Those "dansk" pans above, while similar to my dansk pieces have a couple of differences beyond the floral thing. The real ones I have do not have a screw through the end of the wood handle and the crossed lid handle elements are at right angles. I will shut my eyes and chant "demon knock offs, be gone!"
