Thanks for the info! I'm psyched. That's 2 GTs in 2 weeks.
I can get a shade made for it no problem, but finding or making replacement diffusers will be a very big challenge I think. But one I am really going to enjoy!

RY20 Sideboard
I guess I actually acquired this during "The last thing you acquired Part 1", but it is just that it did not arrive (shipped from Maine to Oregon) until tonight at 10pm. Took just over 7 weeks to get here from the time I bought it.

A few wicker chairs
I got these today. Their metal frames intrigued me.
This is the first one:

And this is one of a pair:

I don't know anything about them and would be interested to learn more, like, how old are they?

Visionaire 44 More Toys Black and Red by Kidrobot
I just got the Visionaire 44 More Toys Black and Red "mint in box" for $200.00 each yesterday. Not the best deal, but not the worst for a 2004 issue. I already had the Visionaire 45 More Toys Blue and Yellow.

Lisa E,
Catching up on some of the discussions I noticed Lisa E.'s pictures with a so called Uten-silo from Dorothee Becker. (Ingo Maurer's first wife) Although Vitra has taken it in production again the prices for originals are very high. The slightly yellowish look of the pictures tells me that this is one of these ABS originals. The other day I did see one in similar condition for around US$ 280. It was sold in the U.S under the name Wall All. Designed in 1969 it became very quickly a design icon. Ingo Maurer almost ruined the company by investing a quarter of a million DM in the mould, but it put them both on the map.
The red one is an unsignificant me-to product by Interdesign, a Chicago based company. The orange one is a vacuum formed replica and the yellow is new to me but certainly nothing near Dorothee Becker's original
