| I decided to do a bit of | 1 Relevance | 11 years ago | leif ericson - Zephyr Renner | General discussion | |
| I decided to do a bit of digging. And Tørring Møbelfabrik still exists: http://torring.com/EN/About-Torring And it was founded by a Hans Nikolaj Jensen in 1911. So we have been reading the "HJN" logo wrong, it is actually to be read as HNJ Møbler. Perhaps someone cares to write a nice email to the current directorship of Tørring, which appears to be in the same family, and inquire about who designed their furniture in the 1950s-1970s. Maybe they still retain some interesting old documents and photos. | |||||
| I think I have a rare Italian table base | 1 Relevance | 16 years ago | csc67 | General discussion | |
| ... until I am cross-eyed and have only found two different sources for my modern table base and one source says unknown designer made in the 1970's and it has a pretty high price tag on it. After some further digging, I found a very similar base as mine except theirs has larger dimensions and is used for a large glass rectangular dining table with the matching chairs. This is a store in Southampton, New York that has it and they say that it is a rare Italian dining table from 1950. This store has this dining set displayed at the New York Design Center.

| ... raise of the water level in the river that flows along our house with sand bags and pumps, but just before 2.00 AM one of th walls of basement of the house collapsed and that was the end of seven hours of digging and pumping. Local security services do not allow us to get into the house because it could collapse any time. For some time we will not have any access to the net (this is one of the few exceptions) and I will be missing the pleasure of reading you all and commenting myself from time to time....be well, I will be back. | |||||
| koen, regarding your 'Tip'N Mix' Bowls... | 1 Relevance | 21 years ago | dcwilson | General discussion | |
| Ever since I did some research in grad school about what people liked and disliked about certain real estate projects after they were built, I have been intrigued by, what shall I call it? Forensic market research; i.e., research into why consumers rejected something. What one can learn from product failure seems especially useful to me. And a well thought out product creates enough clarity of fit between product and context that the reasons for rejection may be more reliably understood--after some digging. Unfortunately, in my field success had many parent ... | |||||

If I ever do evolve (someday), I might like to lean a little more beatnik. More wood and wrought iron. I said IF. But I can already feel it happening. Still California Modern though. But no promises. Hard to get off my plastic jag. I may start by digging out the dark wood LCW that lives in the shed outside, and see how it goes from there… Whomp is good. | |||||

| Yes! Thanks Robert1960! I should have gone back up the thread and attributed. Just read your earlier comment (mcfandrew) about the chair tag. Hadn't even noticed that pic--thanks for digging in and finding that. That does seem to help with the identification. I wonder if our chairs had paper tags at one point. I'm not sure if my chair was reupholstered at any point where that might have been removed. Interested to hear if BG furniture has anyone with some historical perspective. Thanks for checking that out. | |||||

| Nicole – it does not look | 1 Relevance | 11 years ago | teakhound | General discussion | |
| Nicole – it does not look real to me. The large armrests give it away. It also appears that one of the armrest joints is failing. I would be weary of sitting in it until it is repaired. I suggest unscrewing one of the feet (i.e. "glides") – authentic glides are embossed "Domes of Silence." I imagine that replicas would same something else. You may also find a manufacturer's mark under the cushions - I suggest removing one and digging around inside the cushion until you find a tag. Good luck! | |||||
| Thanks Zephyr, Leif, | 1 Relevance | 11 years ago | billyboy | General discussion | |
| Thanks Zephyr, Leif, I'll keep digging and see if I can find an ID somewhere but you've both been most helpful. Attached are a couple of additional shots of the wood and one of the construction underneath. There are three screws for each pair of legs. The two outside screws sit in drilled holes larger than the screw (I imagine that this is to allow for the table to be adjusted to ensure it's perfectly central) and the central screw goes directly into the wood locking the legs in place. Thanks again and have a great day ! BB | |||||

| Hi, all. I'm new here and have a similar question. I have found a shell that claims to be 3rd gen Zenith, but it has no sticker and no stamp that I can see anywhere. I have done some digging and can't seem to be sure if this usual for 3rd gen Zenith or not. Any ideas? I've had the guy save it for me, whilst I find out the specifics. Pics attached. Thanks in advance for any help. Ben | |||||
| It's been a while since I've | 1 Relevance | 11 years ago | gawags | General discussion | |
| It's been a while since I've posted. After digging a little deeper, I belief Leif is onto something. Svend Madsen designed several desks for H.P. Hansen's. I found a similar desk designed by him, circa 1950's, where the legs and how they support the cabinet frame are very similar in design. Locally, I found an antique repair shop that may have a replacement filing cabinet drawer guide. Let's hope I get lucky. Otherwise, I'll create a solid model of the part I have, and have a 3D printed piece made. That's better than nothing. | |||||
