Last Thing You Acquired #46  

Ponti-esqe chair. Unmarked. Appears to be beech. SVDP purchase at $5. I think it needs an ebonization, and the seat reweaved ..... after I finish reweaving my Yugoslavian folding chairs...

A favorite at Goodwill today was the Kidrobot® Loot Crate Mini Munny (MIB). I also got a third Erik Lehmann melamine white slotted spoon for Rosti Denmark. This is good.

A kind of beat up but fully functional toy version of Marcello Nizzoli's Necchi Supernova designed in 1953 and produced by Brevettato.  
The blue Aalto vase is tiny too.

I just returned from Goodwill with a set of Coulon and Grawunder Lido Di Venezia coasters for Salviati and the Gunnar Cyrén bowl, coasters, cups and tray for Dansk Denmark (1-4-4-1) This is good.
minimoma nice toy.

A pair of Wanscher Senator Chairs in Teak that need to be recovered and 12 yds of Remix by Kvdrat from the same thrift store. It was fate.

This Michael Lax blue enamel cast iron sauteuse 1.5 l - 20 cm for Copco Denmark is a perfect addition for my tertiary cookware collection. No lid for under a dollar.

This Alvar Aalto High Stool 64 black birch for Apple Genius Bar by Artek priced at $9.81 net is a good reason to shop Goodwill. The overall condition is very good considering the commercial installation and usage.
I also bought an Oliver Hemming mantel clock for Ziro Design (1985). This too is good.

Little dresser with a partial label indicating Tampa Florida and a Heron(?) rocker & ottoman, one for free and one for $10.00!

Nice snag Grendel. That chair and ottoman have similar construction to the Peter Hvidt & Orla Molgaard lamella-glued furniture. Is the darker wood sandwiched in the middle mahogany? Great score regardless!

Found it - Heron Rocking Chair by Mitsumasa Sugasawa for Tendo Mokko. VERY nice!
I love the dresser, too. I wonder if the sticker is just a moving company thing? It's about the size and shape of the ones they use to keep shipments together.
eta: one of the Dibs listings says that the chairs are oak with rosewood accents! I'm a little green with envy but always happy to know that people are still getting great stuff for nothing.

It was meant to be.
cocktails anyone? my tab.

Spanky- This is the label, I did a little digging and its 'Foster - McDavid' 1950-1968. I didn't realize Florida had produced anything so stylish, other than Mark of course. It begs for Missoni drawer liners.

Just picked up a lovely set of 6 Kai Kristiansen dining chairs with a matching dining table. I didn't take pictures of the table before I stored it, just a quick pic when viewing, but it looks to be an exact match to the chairs.

teakhound had an excellent Heron restoration documentation on his website, which included making a custom clamping jig for regluing the curved laminated frame.

Foster McDavid is all over the Furniture Forums I've been looking at, and I recognize that very same handle. I will see if there is a designer on the pages. I think there was....
