Some photos of your chair would help confirm if it's org or not - if not that might explain why your straps don't work if you bought authentic straps made to knoll specs. One big give away to a fake - on the ends of your chrome tubing (the parts that end, and stick out from the seat base and bottom arm - are they "capped"? Do they have a noticeable caps on the end?

| OK Either way, I can't get worked up on products that have a weird or controversial past. My main issue with IKEA is their lack of quality, difficult assembly, and the fact that when they open up a store in a region of the US, they have put a lot of good second hand furniture stores out of business. | |||||

| original or not Prices for a vintage Eames RAR varies depending on location and demand and more recently economic climate so check around your local market first before committing to this one. Also to clarify when you say "Z" embossed mark, did you mean the old Herman Miller embossed mark, if it is, Zenith versions will not have any but just the decal I mentioned earlier and early Herman Miller will have it and later ones will spell it out. Also Herman Miller is a stickler to tags with dates of manufacture, especially patents, flammability requirements etc. ... | |||||

| ... on that? I'm relatively young. I suppose we stand at opposite ends of the spectrum, I've never owned much stuff, a tv or a printer and tend to live relatively simply. From your standpoint it seems cost and the benefits to the consumer are of importance, from mine living simply offers a better quality of life and I think the 'consumer' (citizen) has had too much choice for too long, it hasn't made us happier or healthier so whats the point of it all? More stuff will end up in landfill and its going to be incredibly difficult to get those resources back out a ... | |||||

| Are you referring to the shells? Or are you looking for an original RAR rocker? The shells in the photos are all original. The white/parchment one looks to be in the best condition. The ochre (or yellow?) one is a nice color, but condition is difficult to tell from the small photo. | |||||
| Lucky Cat pinball machine | 1 Relevance | 15 years ago | niceguy | General discussion | |
| Lucky Cat pinball machine danielmpoole, My answer would be that the Lucky Cat pinball machine is not inexpensive at just under $10,000.00 US dollars. I missed one from a dealer in Canada that had a display piece and was looking to "get out from under" at $4,000.00. This is more in line with my thinking. I am in no rush to acquire this unit and I am positive that during this "difficult economic sitiuation" I will find another at this price or less. | |||||

| Thanks. I guess this is a difficult building to photograph effectively. The images on the site are mostly anecdotal, and there are no drawings to aid the seeker. We see one tantalizing photo of what appears to be a side aisle with free-standing columns . . . The photos on Google are little better -- though one aerial shot helps explain the geometries of the structure. Most intriguing. I guess I might have seen a photo or two of this building, but never followed up with an exploration. Thanks for the introduction ! http://www.google.com/search?client=safa ... | |||||
| Of all the CSS parts | 1 Relevance | 15 years ago | barrympls | General discussion | |
| Of all the CSS parts it might be possible to have some fabricated at a metal works in your town. It's possible that some could be made for a fairly reasonable price. Some of my clips that are in use look like non-originals (i.e. the screw bars do not have the grooves that the original ones have) but they are in use and work just fine. Getting a pole or a pole stabilizer fabricated would be much more difficult and expensive. | |||||

| ... is going to sell a huge number of their replicas. Even if it becomes a runaway hit, though, any success Modernica has with the unlicensed Half-Nelson replica will be limited by the fact that the original manufacturer, Koch & Lowy, is still in business and can reintroduce their "authentic" Half-Nelson at any time -- it's not such a difficult design to manufacture -- thereby pushing Modernica's product out of the marketplace. All I can imagine -- especially given the absence of a "licensed by the Nelson estate" notice on Modernica's Bubble-lamp web pages -- i ... | |||||

| ... its cut form. The medulary rays of white oak are unusually broad, and when the wood is cut so that the exposed surface is close to or co-incident with a plane which bisects the center of the tree, the medulary rays are revealed as a large wavy or spotted figure -- in a material which is much more dense than the remainder of the tree fiber, and thus less friendly to stains, oils, varnishes and waxes. Thus, the medulary "ray flake" becomes the dominant decorative feature of quarter-sawn white oak -- as used by some of the best-known makers of oak furniture ... | |||||

| ... there is likely adhesive residue remaining on the separated surfaces and this can interfere with proper adhesion of an attempted repair. It really should be removed. Some glues are better at overcoming this problem than others (epoxies), but are expensive and difficult for novices to work with. If mucked-up, it's a mess to fix. A lasting joint relys on a few basic principles, as outlined above. If you are ill-equipped or otherwise hesitant, I'd seriously consider removing the top and taking it to a pro. SDR, I've been around long enough to understand and ap ... | |||||

Read about that a couple of years ago, I think it never went ahead becuase the upholstery was too difficult at the time, I'm not so keen but it is an interesting thing, I imagine there is a hoop of tube or rod used to make the backrest and the oculus takes the place of what would have been buttoning, if so its almost identical to Victorian chairs even though it looks so different. | |||||

I have done a lot of seat weaving and I have had reservations about doing that style of chair. I had two of those in pretty good condition with only a few broken strands. I had no use for them so I sold them on Ebay. I started them at $5, which is my usual tactic to get people excited and entice them to bid. Except that time it bombed. They sold for the opening bid and then I had to pack them up and ship them 3,000 miles. What a PAIN. ... | |||||
| pricing strategy | 1 Relevance | 15 years ago | niceguy | General discussion | |
| pricing strategy calibenz, My pricing strategy is based on "people who need the money" as opposed to "people who want the money". I know that a floor sample is worth no more than less 50%, so I fail to see how a previously enjoyed piece would be of a greater cost. Never be too shy to offer too little. You may always increase your offer, but it is difficult to lower your offer. You will know your price is good when they say yes. It also requires the patience to wait for the deal. Instant gratification does increase the price. | |||||
