	Assistance Identifying a Rosewood Wall Unit Please	1 Relevance	17 years ago	NotCado	General discussion
	... then sent a picture to Simon Harrison at Danish Homestore, and he was very helpful, but again could not tell me the manufacturer. (He originally suggested that it might be a PS system, but then realized the the support bracket runs the length of the shelf on the underside and said he had never seen anything like that before.) However, he suggested that I post something on this forum and see if anyone here could help me out. So, I'm hoping that you all might be willing to take a look at it and let me know your thoughts and ideas for where I might find th ...
	Mystery teak bowl	1 Relevance	18 years ago	Gustaf	General discussion
	Why is one short end shaped differently? Was it made like that or is it a later repair? I am guessing it was damaged at some point and that this is a rather clever repair. What do you think? If not, I would be puzzled as to the reason it is shaped like that. Any ideas? And what would you use it for?
	bases for Eames shells	1 Relevance	18 years ago	whitespike	General discussion
	... stuff these days. Now either way I go, they will be unoriginal, so I feel like I could buy whatever for them. My first choice might be the dowel base. Second would be vintage X bases, and third vintage black H bases. I have noticed that different bases make the chair sit differently. I have noticed that the H is more comfortable than the eiffel, which seems a little too upright. Has anyone else noticed this, and if so, how does the dowel compare?

	... a couple, But that's another story. She is a huge Saarinen fan, and about 4 years ago she pointed to one of her tulip chairs, held out her hand, wiggled her fingers and said if I could put one of those chairs on her hand, she would marry me. It was a good joke. When I went to Osaka in January to meet her family (gulp!), I dropped to one knee and gave her this ring. In the middle of the busy Osaka airport no less! I sculpted the hard wax myself (a week of evenings cursing and muttering). I have no skills for this small work so go easy on me for its crudeness ...

(Even starting at the same humidity different pieces of wood expand and contract differently and differently in relation to the direction of the grain).

	ceiling canopy	1 Relevance	13 years ago	sirlampsalot	General discussion
	ceiling canopy I have noticed several fixtures over the years that have discolored ceiling canopy's compared to the body of the fixture. I think this could come about from a few reasons. 1. The fixture releases heat that floats up generally and that concentration of heat could make the ceiling canopy and finishes on it react differently from the body of the fixture. 2. Depending on where the fixture originally resided, there could have been a roof leak and water could have discolored it over time. 3. Many people when cleaning a fixture neglect to clean t ...

	... most complete skeletons of these magnificient monsters yet. Well, after succumbing to fatigue and hunger from extended hunger to crowds of children delighted by all manner of flesh eating dinosaur, mammal fish, and bird specimens, my son in particular on Cloud 9^10 power, we found our way to the museum cafe for food. In line I sampled my "Italian" sandwich, which looked real but tasted fake. Shuffling outside to a court yard I was pessimistic about what kind of hideously uncomfortable seating and tables awaited. I was pleasantly surpised to find some steel ...

I rang expecting them to say it was a typo but they said that the three of four they had left were $700.I asked the girl was she sure of that as something similar was for sale in the UK for much more,she assured me it was correct.I agreed to buy 2 of the 3 and another piece which was at the same price as it had been in the UK. I put down the phone and couldnt believe my luck so I rang back and asked a load more questions because they catalogued their pieces differently to the UK gallery.I then presumed either I was wrong or they were w ...
	Off planet design...have noteworthy designers tried?	1 Relevance	20 years ago	dcwilson	General discussion
	... the work over the years? Some of the logos of the space agencies are about all I see that looks done by professional designers. Have any respected modernist or neomodernist product designers been asked to step in and design the tools and appliances, interiors and accessories space travel requires? As space tourism is in its planning and feasibility phases aimed apparently mostly at the extremely wealthy, have any major designers been asked to participate? If not, perhaps a group of innovative young designers should form a small design collective and draw, o ...
	I'm probably wrong, but	1 Relevance	13 years ago	Mark	General discussion
	I'm probably wrong, but the "antler" underneath the chair appears odd. Also, the front angle of the arms appear slightly off. But maybe Vitra manufactures their chair differently. My guess is that it is not an authentic chair...and I' sure that is what you really don't want to hear. but I've been wrong before. Aunt Mark

	Wow. Evelyn Ackerman meets... Wow. Evelyn Ackerman meets Black Forest is exactly right! (I was not familiar with the Ackermans). It makes me laugh how all the elements I so dislike as a Black Forest Cuckoo Clock: (the cuckoo, the owl, the deer, and oak leaves, and a random song bird) can be combined differently to make a fantastic modernist statement. It makes me realize how provocative the whole modernist movement was when it started.

	new photos from this... new photos from this morning, in daylight without flash. These do a better job of showing the actual color of the wood, although the split wood still reads differently from different daylight angles. Also, the doweled tops (not photographed) appear to me to be turned from the teak legs and not a separate connector dowel; however, I am not 100% sure on that. Apologies for the misleading initial shots.

	Leif, My catalog does not... Leif, My catalog does not have a year and is bound differently from yours. The first 7-10 pages are nearly identical (even the same pictures and item numbers) but then the catalog diverges a bit. When I have a chance, I will check if there are any Aasbjerg pieces that are not in your catalog. I take it, these are all labled with an EX code? A couple quickly taken pics below.

	... differently to water). Then you can do some water tests on these scraps to learn what you are looking for. After 50 years or so, with coated leather, I would be worried that the coating may have worn throughout places. If you were then to follow Fredericia's leather care guidelines, you could end up with very blotchy leather, because the applied product would enter the leather where the coating has worn off. This could require a lot of work to remedy. (You see an analogous situation with teak, when it has been lacquered at the factory, then worn through ...
