| thanks so much for the | 1 Relevance | 11 years ago | FLagent | General discussion | |
| thanks so much for the comments and direction! I have not found an example yet of this piece with the cane doors, but it now certainly looks to be leading toward George Nelson for Herman miller. I have found quite a few examples of thin edge cabinets with the same legs as well as the same brace/beam underneath. I am going to keep digging!! Thanks again for the direction!!!! | |||||
| Why not just put a fair price | 1 Relevance | 11 years ago | tktoo | General discussion | |
| Why not just put a fair price on it as-is and let the future owner decide what, if anything, needs doing? FTR, I'm digging the aged appearance. Especially on the base. Maybe the top could use a light-handed tarting up, though. Good old oxalic acid treatment to rid it of water stains and a re-oiling? That's about as far as I'd wanna go. | |||||
| I keep coming back to this | 1 Relevance | 11 years ago | leif ericson - Zephyr Renner | General discussion | |
| I keep coming back to this table, and my first thought is always Johannes Andersen. And then I start digging in to the idea, and it just doesn't work out. And then I start thinking about how he emphasized the legs on his table designs by placing the legs flush to the edge of the table. But this table emphasizes the leg in a different manner: by pulling it out of the plane of the apron. And this just does not seem like Johannes Andersen at all. | |||||
| Robert P. Moore Jr. | 1 Relevance | 11 years ago | minimalman | General discussion | |
| Robert P. Moore Jr. I think the digging has paid off and I have a positive ID. At least it wasn't Morris. He was a professor at the Massachusetts College of Art and taught color theory and painting. Students said he had an aggressive and argumentative style mixed with southern charm. Nice call on "arguing" with this piece, Objectworship! In case anyone would like to know more, here's a lovely article. He seems like a fascinating guy, one who was taken way too young. http://artinthestudio.blogspot.com/2009/12/rob-moore-art-of-seeing.html | |||||

| Thank you for the response. I'm not in the same state as my inlaws, and I'm trying to get additional photos from them - I'm hoping something on the table lends more of a clue. She also had a lovely floating bookcase that's now in pieces in storage, which my inlaws are also digging out. They want to sell it at a garage sale this weekend, but I'm trying to convince them to hold onto it a bit longer (what's another week or so after 5 years). | |||||

| Does the shelf match the | 1 Relevance | 12 years ago | leif ericson - Zephyr Renner | General discussion | |
| Does the shelf match the other pieces, or is it clearly a replacement? It is entirely possible that Glassartist is right. But I did a bit of digging, and the evidence would suggest that there are supposed to be 4 drawers, of flexible arrangement, and not necessarily felted or with silverware inserts.

| ... down, and they have criss cross quilt like stitching on them. I am naturally rather skeptical about an "unknown" Wegner. But in digging about the internet, I did bump into a number of later Getama/Wegner pieces which are very uncommon. And also look a lot like this sofa, especially the rear leg. How likely is it that a buyer could get matching upholstery from two different Danish furniture companies? | |||||

| ... Mollino (i.e. Gilda chair) but toghether with much more bent-shaped design. Of course it's highly improbable (let' say impossible) that they are some prototype by Tapiovaara, Grabe or even Molino, but these are the only comparisons I can make. They are extremely well made, and with a quite unconventional shape, so that's why I think they should be of some qualified designer and not just a common pair of "mid century easy chairs"... any comment is welcome, meanwhile I keep digging! | |||||

| ... are always going to be hard to nail down. The general consensus for rope shells can run anywhere from 1949 to 1953 (or even 1954 by some accounts on "Eamesdesigns". The "half label" shells came towards the end of that time frame, as Herman Miller took over. Others here have pointed this out if you want to do some digging in the archives. | |||||

Getting people to come by the studio and pushing them to spend 20k on a piece of wood. I guess it was a bit of a turn off. Not the humble Japanese woodworker many people like to think of him as. Not trying to rain on your parade. I do hope it's Nakashima. Every piece that is unearthed and restored is a bonus to the market. But hoping you take the time to definitively attribute it to him.
