| @amber5. A few similarities, especially the backrest support and the seat shape BUT there are also differences in the rest of the frame. Not sure it is the same model. Very nice chair. | |||||

The Eames La Chiase comes to mind (it is not made by HM, but rather Vitra only), it sells for approx US$6800 in the US, but is possibly a lot cheaper in Europe (please correct me if I am wrong). It sells for approx US$3800 in Hong Kong, and US$4.5K in Singapore. As for the differences in the Vitra version and HM version of the Lounge Chair, they are not exactly the same. Two differences I have noted. Firstly the metal base is slightly different. At the ends of the five prong metal base (the side that faces up) of the Vitra chair, it is ... | |||||

| ... refreshing artifactual (have I made up a word here?) styles. But from this American's eyes, that is first from a distance, and then from touring up close in Europe, one cannot help but notice some common threads among the tribes of Europe. To look at Danish Modern and Bauhaus is to look at the artifacts of tribes evidencing significant relations and sensibilities springing from a commmon past. To eat Provence cooking and then to eat cooking in at least some parts of the northern half of Italy is to find as many similarities as differences. To travel Europe ... | |||||

| Communicating the similarities and differences between various leather samples, online, will be an interesting challenge. Ideas, anybody? Perhaps Mosez will be able to devise a standard measure for thickness, softness, pliability? As to thickness, that could be measured; as he will be in possession of all the samples, maybe a subjective measure of the other qualities, on a scale of 1 to 10, would suffice? Photos of the surface, taken with a strong cross-light under identical conditions, would take care of the appearance comparison, presumably. Wouldn't it ... | |||||

| @havertz. Hi; Could you post a few more photos of your chair? side views, views of the underside, from the back etc. Does your chair have a reclining mechanism? There are a lot of these style chairs , especially Swedish designed ones and the subtle differences in shape of the wooden frame or legs can provide a lot of information. I do have an idea but would need to see more pics. Thanks. | |||||
| RE: Dux : A basic overview of expansion to USA. | 1 Relevance | 6 years ago | lexi | General discussion | |
| @mark737. Thanks. I had come across that account in my searches. All I had to go on were print adverts, a couple of incomplete catalogues and LOTS of images of furniture with Dux stamps and a few links to random information. It took a while. Mats Linder has a post about Dux from the 50's. I had some fun trying to find the more familiar names used for the same furniture ! I never realized how many different models were in the Contour Series ( Alf Svensson). All with subtle differences. 🙄 | |||||

| ... that is fair! because that's what manufcturers do. They produce and they compete on quality, (unless they have legally acquired the production rights of a new design)Back to Cassina. Of course in comparing they use all the tricks in the book. Their products are shown in sharp, clean pictures on white background the competitor on black background (even if it requires the use of a negative picture) The pictures ar blurry and in more than one way un-attractive. But at least they compare quality. One interesting detail on evolution of manufacturing is that they ... | |||||

| ... Oberzwieselau glashütte. I do not know the exact story, but I think that the company was called that way until the 1930ties. It might be that it suffered from the economic crisis in the 30ties and restarted under the Poschinger name. All of this is of course much later than Behrens, who designed the glasses around 1900. On the website you will find a catalogue with on page 58/59 the two models of Behrens that are still in production. Again, you will see that there are some differences with the ones that you can find in the inventory of large auction houses. ... | |||||

| ... is, why do we accept these differences in the legislation. differences by the way that are not based on reasonable arguments but on tradition. I do not see why the duration of a patent in 2005 is still the result of a negotiation between Henri IV and a Flemish stained glass maker in the middle of the 15th century. So my arguments are twofold: Legislation on intellectual property affects our lives more than we seem to be aware of. There is almost no education on the subject in design schools and very little debate about it within the professional association ... | |||||
