The Last Thing You Acquired #38  

Goodwill bird, signature dated '60-

that bird print is pretty awsome object!  and thats alot on vinyl!
My old design college had the philippe starck armchairs in a small relax space which replaced some very ugly but comfy plush chairs thats students would push together and sleep on during studio finals. Since then i delveloped a negative connotation towards them. haha

Move on from plastic to paper.
Last month I also got the:Oscar Niemeyer for Assouline Ultimate Edition and the Visionaire 62 Rio limited edition of 2000 with 3D lenticular cover design by Humberto and Fernando Campana.  
Way cool.
 

I had some decent luck during a work break today.  Found an owl bank by Bennington Pottery, Oiva Toikka vase by Iiitala, Glo Ball lamp by FLOS Italy, Bitossi vase, Krenit bowl, some Heller plates, and a ceramic shepherd(?) figurine that I know nothing about thus far.  The only thing with chips or damage is the Krenit bowl.  The Glo Ball lamp was all of $2 at the Goodwill Bins.

what are the works like on that lamp?  I bought, what I think, is an identical globe but no works.  It was SOOO pretty.  Figured I would come up with something to do with it.
 
and just so I don't feel left out here are a pair of BIG ceramic lamps.  Wonderful

This is the S1 hanging pendant version of the lamp, rather than the table version.  The table version seems to have a base unit that the globe sits on.  There also appear to be other versions as well, some of which appear to have tall stands.

as for those lamps...
Design technics (lee Rosen)?  I admit that I had never heard of that manufacturer.  Sure to look the part.  MIght have to take off the base and see if there are any other marks.

tchp,
Excellent selection.  This is good.
 

Thanks niceguy

I had another good day thrifting today.  A second Bennington Pottery owl bank (this one had yellow marbles glued over the eyes, which I removed using some hot water), a Richard Nissen teak cheese serving board I have not seen before, a small cast iron box from Japan, and 18 pieces of Arabia Ruska.  The Ruska set was $20.

I'm glad you've moved out of my general neighborhood TCHP.

...and a Hans Bolling duck, too, tchp. Good haul!

Lovely stuff tchp! 

Thanks.  If things keep going at this rate I will need to open my own booth at an antique mall, or something.
