The last thing you acquired, #8  

I think the chairs might be...
I think the chairs might be executed in aformosia, a darker variety of teak. It's mostly used for solid pieces like legs, handles, trims etc. Flat surfaces and veneers are mainly done in lighter teak, I've noticed.
Great chairs, the back and lower seat seem pristine! How much did you pay?

.
Those chairs are furkin hot!
The weave looks a little low in the seat frame and is the backrest comfortable? The only concerns I'd have, otherwise grand. Lovely to see something so nice.

They do sit a little low, I assume from years of use. A few of the strings are torn on 2 of the chairs. I figure I will leave them alone as structurally, it seems to have no effect.
I have ammassed quite a few cool dining sets....can't convince myself to part with them.
Heath (and others). Need some advice on refinishing a Z chair frame that has been sitting in my parents basement for quite some time. I am in no way a wood worker/crafstman and figured I would give it a shot. Maybe you guys could advise this rooky?

beautiful chairs jdip,
especially love the weaving of the backrest!
I have some bowls in the same tone and they are marked "solid teak".
good luck with your z-chair; take some pictures and make a new thread?

I believe there are versions of the Selig/Christiansen&Larsen Z Chair that are oil finished (in teak, and walnut also), as well as varnished versions that are often made from beech that are dye stained a walnut color. Which type do you have? Refinishing a varnished chair with a worn finish can be a lot harder than refinishing the oiled versions.

I think
My z chair is walnut with a varnish. The finish is flaking. I wont be able to add pics until Sunday though. Will start a new thread if you guys don't mind when I get the pics. I know it is a skill not learned in a weekend but I have to start somewhere.

Baltensweiler Lamp
Baltensweiler Vintage desk lamp, I think it is part of the 600 series. Although it is very much the same as the others I have seen, the cord on mine goes through the base in two spots where on others I have seen it only goes through in one place.
It doesn't look like it has been drilled through either.

great lamp
and I love lamps
yesterday got a Borge Mogensen Safari chair in crazy good condition for $5. You have to like that. Pics forthcoming

I got one too
Not Mognesens though.

yours
is handsomer, frankly

thanks
I saw it somewhere but it was stained and had naugahyde upholstery. I traded a rather expensive chair and was having second thoughts but it now has a soap finish and very soft leather. A lot of work and anxiety but I'm very pleased.

well worth
the effort
but I bet mine would be better on an actual safari....not much risk of that

Lovely chair
Nice work.

Re: Bambi chair
Pretty sure it´s mahogany!

and today
what has been attributed as a Milo Baughman Cube chair for Metropolitan Furniture in SF. Not sure if that is a legit attribution. I bought it mostly because it was solid oak and the fabric (wool) was so nice.
EDIT: I'll add a pic as soon as I get it out of my car!
