The last thing you acquired  

Wooohooo-well done!!! Awesome find!!!!
More so that it was in midst of NYC!!! -Enjoy!!

I guess that makes up for the...
I guess that makes up for the Angelo Mangiarotti table you missed out on at the Goodwill.

$5!?!
That's a score for the ages.
Congrats.

This does, indeed, make me...
This does, indeed, make me feel better about the Angelo Mangiarotti table. The table (I was able to match up the marble veining on the base) showed up on 1stDibs last week for 12K.... (see link) but if you gave me the choice, I'd take the Egg any day.
That said, anyone have any recommendations for a shop in or near NYC that can refoam and reupholster? This is one of those jobs that can't just be sent anywhere

Jesgord, I commend you for...
Jesgord, I commend you for making a donation! Seriously good karma! If I may, I suggest giving the donation when the lady who assisted you is present. Maybe even give her a flower....maybe, since you might not want to draw too much attention.
I'm still amazed with your find...especially since it's complete with an ottoman. Like Tulipman, astounding it was on the streets of NYC!!! Next time, carry off your finds! Too risky leaving it with strangers.

like gene's papa bear...
I don't have the chair to match this grasshopper ottoman I just acquired, but the chair is easier to find.
Unless I find someone first who has a chair and needs an ottoman...

hmmmm...I've been looking for...
hmmmm...I've been looking for that ottoman for several years!
Let me know if you list it for sale anywhere.

Amazing! Although it's a double edged sword - now that you've got it you MUST bring it back to life! 🙂 So jealous!

Magnifier
A Dazor magnifying floor lamp for the workshop I think, or would you put this in your house?

Saved. (saarinen knoll executive chair)
I was driving home when I spotted this chair sitting in someone's yard. I made a quick U and asked if they would sell it to me, the owner looked at me perplexed and told me I could have it. I told him I'd pay him something or replace it. He took my offer of a replacement, so I brought him to acceptable lawn chairs. He told me it was probably wet since it had rained the night before, oh the fate I saved this lovely from. I did I good deed. 🙂 It's now clean and sitting pretty indoors.
It's in good condition, the original label was removed/ lost but does have an IBM sticker on the back leg. It is also missing a glide would any of you know where I could find a replacement?

Wassily Chair
Got this pair of knock-offs at Goodwill.

Acquisition on my birthday is best. Yesterday I received the Paul Levitz, 75 Years Of DC Comics - The Art Of Modern Mythmaking for Taschen, Glenn O'Brien, Penthouse 40th Anniversary for Assouline, Visionaire - Number 49 - Decades limited edition 1951 of 4000, Louis I Kahn by Robert McCarter for Phaidon, Phaidon - Ron Arad Talks To Mathew Collings, and three (3) Baccarat Christmas ornaments. It is good to be me
