| Hi David. | 1 Relevance | 12 years ago | Mark | General discussion | |
| Hi David. I was of the school of thought thinking that "Baby scales" were a skin disorder on certain toddlers. When I was a plump tyke, Mother would just have the gamey smelling man behind the meat counter at the supermarket (the one with the red/white apron) weigh us on his scale while Mother shopped for cigarettes. A sticker was then affixed to the top of our tender heads to protect the soft spot, to be removed only by the butcher during the next weighing. And look how I turned out. but I digress.....

| great post, tktoo. | 1 Relevance | 12 years ago | Mark | General discussion | |
| great post, tktoo. I very much enjoyed that snippet. I wonder what ever happened to the 4 boy's? We had uptight neighbors with tragic (probably cheap) white french ornate crap on their patio (lots of it... and even their front porch) that also included a blackamoor (sp? or two). It would be politically incorrect to describe their birdhouse that the father was so proud of. But I digress, Aunt Mark | |||||

| ... don't know that I would spend a penny to find out what kind of product you may be getting. That said...just wait a few months when Wal*Mart starts selling 'em. They'll do one of their infamous "Price Rollbacks" after a few weeks and they'll become even cheaper! Who knew you could get EVEN cheaper than slave labor working for a militaristic/industrial corrupt communist government by retailing them through a corrupt U.S. company that won't even pay their employees a living wage that affords them even a filthy shred dignity? GOD BLESS AMERICA!...And if he has ... | |||||

| ... numbers), as well as repeated mention in the literature of the field, would indicate that a piece has reach the status of "classic." Another meaning of the term is its inference that the design in question reflects the formal restraint and timeless dignity of the prototypes of "classicism," the Greek icons of architecture, of which the collonaded temples found on the Acropolis at Athens, and elswhere in the region, are the primary examples. In this sense, the architecture of Mies van der Rohe, Edward Durrell Stone and Philip Johnson can be called "classic. ... | |||||

| ... me relate to your motives, but I digress. I read this post as a buyer 'beware'. In fact, it's in the title. Believe me, if I were in a position to make an offer, I'd be happy to have been made aware and right now I struggle to look at it any other way. This community benefits from self policing in that regard. I also hasten to add that you may be correct that Leif has not seen the set in person but what are the chances that the buyer would have the opportunity to see them in person? Pieces like this are not sold locally, more likely internationally, so the ... | |||||

My lovely aunt has always tucked a tissue under her watchband (bottom side). Yup. An elderly gal never knows when she may need a tissue! But I digress. Now, the pair of urns selected are from my favorite Worth Avenue store, and are unused (I think). They are heavy, and the lids fit very well. Each urn is different in pattern and slight color as they made by poor Chinese children back then with little ... | |||||
| Help with any info on this table by France & Sons | 1 Relevance | 12 years ago | Stephie07 | Identification | |
| Hi all. We have this unique coffee table in teak that was refinished for us by a friend (it was in a fire if you can believe that! He did a great job!) but I digress. There is a metal France and Sons button underneath and the table features two, hinged, fold down "leaves" that are held up with wooden "slider rails" underneath. I have never seen this type of coffee table and no clue as to the designer. Any info would be great! Designer, year, etc. there is a serial number but not sure how to de wiper it. Thanks a lot! | |||||

| Mark, you may not find this | 1 Relevance | 14 years ago | tktoo | General discussion | |
| Mark, you may not find this as hilarious as I do, but I took our dear KL to be female and I have no idea as to why I would! Probably the booze, but I digress. Doesn't the veneer on KL's lounge set seem at all unusual to you? I must say that I have never seen another example quite like it before. Maybe I'm just a natural skeptic. I agree that just about everything else looks authentic, but I still want to see the backings on the cushions before I'd feel comfortable falling one way or the other. I haven't taken a good look at all of the more recent repros and ... | |||||
| Very Nice! | 1 Relevance | 14 years ago | terryt | General discussion | |
| Very Nice! You do possess some serious talent! I agree that you need a bit more color to display, but I digress. If you want me to give you my opinion on the design (if you would like another take on it) I would notch out the shelves in front if possible where the stainless vertical rods show prominently because they are somewhat imposing. that is the only thing i would tweak, but they are gorgeous anyway! | |||||

| Cheers everyone, it's been a while since I've been around. Hope every body is doing well. I've been busy with lot's of drama and have just completed my first electric guitar, but surely I digress...Do any of you knowledgeable folks recall seeing this magazine rack before? I know the landscape is littered with metal racks but this one has some nice proportions to my eye, any ideas? Brent | |||||
| Where is the line between an "antique" and "used" pre-owned Eames lounge... | 1 Relevance | 17 years ago | Starter | General discussion | |
| and ottoman? So I'm in the process of buying an Eames lounge and ottoman... probably black/walnut, but I digress. Anyway, early on in my search for the perfect one, I flip-flopped between getting a vintage 1950's antique, or just picking up a new one at DWR. During my research, I also began to consider a third possibility, that is, saving a few bucks and getting a nice used one. Here's where it gets fuzzy... where exactly is the line between "used" and "antique" drawn? Clearly, a nice example from the 50's is an antique, being that it was produced early in t ... | |||||

| ... crime, ugliness, and unhappiness. Portland offers about the friendliest big city folk I have run into, and they seem just plain happy to be in Portland. It is clean and it appears the citizens like it that way and keep it that way. Portland is more handsome than beautiful, but its handsomeness goes to the bone, whereas my other favorite American city, San Francisco, is beautiful beyond compare, but Bagdad by the Bay's beauty is largely skin deep and reveals warts and wrinkles when you get up close and personal with her; that of course is part of her whore-i ... | |||||

| Whew. Thanks Mark. I love the vintage jacket, and the orange and yellow combo. Orange and yellow were my mom's favorite you know…. she was born on Halloween. But I digress…. Great shot Mark! That sky is a whole story in itself SDR. I think it's the best one of yours I've seen. EVER. Look at those orange tendrils of light on the right… they go off into the world of ultra-violet as they disappear. I can't imagine how great that must have been in real life. Today is November 15th. This is the day that marks the beginning of damp weather. It's in my personal al ... | |||||

| I stand corrected....Perhaps... I stand corrected....Perhaps I misspoke using the word knock off....how about eerily similar? I have seen a table so close to the Grete Jalk surely one could be forgiven in thinking it was copied deliberately to capitalize on the teak madness of the 60's /70?. But I digress... I think her table had enough razzamatazz going on to set it apart from some others... | |||||
