| Assistance needed to identify mid-century chair | 1 Relevance | 8 years ago | Ccampbell66 | General discussion | |
| I purchased this chair in the early 90s at a yard sale. It came with ad torn out Architectural digest (I think) that was a liquor ad featuring either Bill Blass or Halston’s NYC livingroom. I can’t find the chair in any books, but feel that if a prominent designer owned one it possibly was someone special. I’d love to find the ad again. I think it was for a bourbon or scotch. Does anyone recognize the chair? Attachment: 782323BF-3924-4B76-AD47-DACA34DF76DF.jpeg | |||||

Has any company productized such invention? I ask this, because I want to get rid of my eye glasses, and after operation I need regular eye drops for couple of weeks. I'm sometimes absent-minded. http://www.sti.nasa.gov/tto/ | |||||

He doesn't have a deep passion for conventional furniture and design the way I have passion for modern design, so hopefully I'll also, in addition to training him, be able to win him over by sheer dominating enthusiasm. | |||||

| "Not everything dubbed Perriand, however, is indisputably Perriand. At Les Arcs, for instance, she directed a team of talented contributors and sourced outside vendors, some of whose works have been mistakenly attributed to her. According to the designer’s only child and sometime collaborator, Pernette Perriand-Barsac, a leather-clad chrome side chair used extensively at Les Arcs -and widely sold as one of her mother’s works- was actually purchased in bulk from DalVera, a now-defunct Italian manufacturer.

Everything is individually designed and crafted and made specifically for them, so what we had thought would be a semi-manufactured line that my son would be in charge hasn’t taken off at all. We took it to Architectural digest, we took it to Neocon last year and we’ve tried to promote it and it just hasn’t taken off. I mean we would like to be able to. There’s just the way these things are made there’s no fast way to make them. Knoll has taken that chair over ther ... | |||||

Instead she chose not to follow procedure, and standards, and contexts, and went beyond him, and his degrees, and his awards, and his published articles, and his reputation, and his vast wealth of "don't try to challenge me" type knowledge, until it was proved right.

| Patrick and Alix, thanks... Patrick and Alix, thanks for taking the time to digest my dcwilson-esque posts (in terms of quantity, I can never match the quality). In that case I think you are making the right priorities. To expand on my initial impressions, I have, in the short time since your announcement, come to appreciate the radar not just as a place for commerce but also as a complimentary and very handy source of additional knowledge on design. I would also like to take the opportunity to express an interest in ads from dealers specializing in prints a ... | |||||

| Mid Century Modern Hey Joelle, Sorry about the responses thus far. As Barry mentioned it takes some mental gymnastics to think back to the very beginning when we were all in the dark about MCM design. A great book is Mid Century Modern by Bradley Quinn. He simply and informatively discusses the environment that led to Modernism, the variations of modernism around the world, and the resurgence of Modern as a lifestyle today. All of it is done in easty to digest chapters, with various focuses on the furniture, architecture, fabrics, accessories, and color t ... | |||||
