| It did, but I took it with a grain of salt.. Entering into a community with a high degree of knowledge I know little about, I expect a snooty response now and then, especially when the topic is design. For the record, the $325 (no tax) guy fell through, said he couldn't make it for a week or so. Someone came and looked at them interested at $600, but was uncomfortable with a lack of sturdiness. Another came by today and purchased the set for $500. I bought them for $70, half-off the original price, so that's not bad. There's a fool born every minute, b ... | |||||
| I second Leif on almost all | 1 Relevance | 10 years ago | Zephyr | Repair | |
| I second Leif on almost all points. Definitely teak. I also prefer cord on my Moller chairs. If you prefer upholstery, though, it is not a difficult upholstery project. Probably the most difficult part in my mind would be replacing the foam. It is usually contact adhered to the beech, and somewhat sculpted to get good curves around the edges. I am a novice, and not clear on how best to scupt foam. If you are not an experienced upholster, it is worth your time to remove all of the staples, and try to get the fabric off intact. It will give you an exact t ... | |||||

| Great job! thank you guys!.. although its difficult to find a lot of information about it. Apparently the only "name" it got was model #100, but that must have been a factory name from the Willy Beck production. I can only find the chair produced by Fritz Hansen from the early 1950, but the Willy Beck version up till late 1960. Once again THANKS! i just love that chair.. | |||||

| ... is N. Eilersen's and it was indeed a member of the DFMC. The fact that you have a DFMC sticker means that the chair cannot be older than 1959 (the year the organization was founded). Concerning the authenticity of the chair... difficult to say without a picture. However, N. Eilersen is not exactly one of the most famous Danish furniture maker of the period so it would be quite surprising that someone bothered to make fakes. . | |||||

| I know nearly nothing about this design, but if it looks right to tktoo, I am confident it looks very right. Thus, I would point out that it is fairly difficult to invent a plausible story that results in a excellent forgery getting sold at an estate sale (for estate sale prices, presumably). The whole point of forgery would be the return. | |||||

Obviously the edge should have the same profile as the table, and you should try to get a white melamine that matches as closely as possible. That last part will probably be the most difficult part of the process. | |||||

I have been told that there were different versions in the past: these seller, for example, was selling a table similar to this as an original one ( I called them). http://www.demosmobilia.ch/index_mobile.php?url=products/view/3884/index | |||||

This is my J16 that I stripped, bleached, bleached again, sanded, soaped, rinsed off, and sanded again: https://www.designaddict.com/forum/Repair/restoring-weathered-beech-wood-...

| Also the switch does look odd | 1 Relevance | 10 years ago | DrPoulet | Identification | |
| Also the switch does look odd. It is difficult to tell from your picture but it seems that it is a metal one. The switch that is usually seen is a plastic pushbutton. I am not sure if the first edition lamps had the plastic pushbutton switch but they had it in 1967 (the picture below is from the 1967 Louis Poulsen catalog). Does someone know if these table lamps were actually used in the Royal SAS hotel? I have seen the floor lamp and the wall lamp versions on pictures but never the table one. I always thought that these were the rooms' bedside lamps but it ... | |||||

| Aarnio Bubble Chair repair? | 1 Relevance | 10 years ago | Daves-I-Know | General discussion | |
| I recently came across a bubble chair with some surface scratching and some areas that had what appears to be glue rubbed around the opening. I'm afraid to use a heavy solvent to try and remove the glue , but I'm wondering if anyone knows a product that is safe to use on this type of plastic? And if it is possible to fill in the scratch marks? I've taken a couple of picture, but it's difficult to pick up detail since it's a clear surface. Any advice is much appreciated ! | |||||
