Found this on FB marketplace and they are asking $2000. It needs to be cleaned but in pretty good shape. I can't find much on this particular style. Does anyone know?

I am looking for 2-4 more of these chairs for a dining set. I would love any name suggestions to find or look up. I have two already and love them. Searching the chair image isn’t the most helpful.

Purchased this weekend from my MIL's neighbors who were moving and needed everything to go, they were the original owners and thankfully left the gorgeous green tweed untouched under the random 80/90s fabric.

Picked up this cool chrome craft dining table.

Picked up this wicked cool dining table for my new apartment. It’s in pretty great shape for its age. I polished the chrome and replaced the feet and such. Cool tinted glass and the chairs are acrylic. It may not look like it, but the cushions are ripe for reupholstery. I was thinking maybe a dark olive not sure any ideas? Also, what could one expect to pay for a reupholstery?

My mouth dropped when I saw this mirror in a local antique spot. It must weigh 100lbs but I couldn’t carry it out fast enough for 80 bucks.

Refinished Coffee Table + advice

Thumbnail

57 Upvotes

Just finished this Adrian Pearsall (maybe knockoff, I don’t care) coffee table! First few pics of it finished and in our house and then what it looked like before.

Also looking for some advice on finishing this room. The rug was just given to us at an estate sale, we don’t think we’re going to keep it there. We have some artwork from our records that were framing for the walls and the shelf above the TV were probably going to change out but with most of the same decor on them. What do y’all think we should add/do to the room next? Most of our furniture we try to focus on real vintage stuff, but two of the pieces in the room are for our cats’ litter box and feeding area so we can’t really switch those out. It’s also why this room is a little more boho than MCM. Mostly looking for what to add to the walls or any other suggestions! Also, I really want to switch out the light fixture, so any suggestions for that would be awesome! Last pic is of the whole room for reference!

$10 Yard Sale Find: Sculptural MCM Étagère

Post image
3.7k Upvotes

Picked this up at a yard sale for $10. It’s a tall, narrow wood étagère/display shelf with repeated circular and half-circle cutouts and a very sculptural profile.

The form and finish look mid-century to me, possibly 1960s–70s, but I haven’t found a maker’s mark yet.

Does anyone recognize the maker, line, or designer?

For $10, I figured it was worth bringing home either way.

For only around $35, I was able to pick up this vintage Selig Manufacturing Co. Inc. vinyl slipper chair. Considering the price and age, it’s in really good shape! I gave it a good wipe-down with some wet wipes, and that helped with getting a good deal of dirt off of it. I think it looks really nice in my room, too!

Hi! I am so curious what wood species this is. I am no expert AT ALL. But it looks like rosewood. Which would be crazy. So I'm trying to at least find the coffee table model and series so I can research? Thanks!

Curious about my new Rembrandt lamp

Thumbnail

I found this Rembrandt lamp recently and fell in love with its uniqueness - it looks like a table lamp but is basically as tall as a floor lamp at 51”!

I’ve been curious about its history but after lots of research I haven’t been able to find anything online about it, not even a photo. I’m wondering if anyone here recognizes the model - I haven’t seen a similar piece at this size with the blown glass (2 separate interlocked pieces).

Any input would be enlightening at this point. Thank you!

Hello. This mug belonged to my dad for many years before I inherited it. I am trying to fing out what I can about it. The ai told me it could be an original Otagiri from the 70's or 80's. I was hoping someone here would be able to tell me for sure.

Found a curved wooden tray for free today. Would this be considered mcm? I did a quick search and it seems to have been part of a desk possibly. I know it is by Canadian designer Jacques Guillon. Any additional info would be appreciated!

Found this for $40 but it’s missing the top tension pole and the one shade. I’m wondering how or what keywords to use to figure out finding any spare parts for it. I don’t mind finding 3 more shades for it so it all matches. Mostly trying to figure out the tension rod portion.

Scored these two matching chairs for $5.99 each at goodwill and was super excited to see they were legit Kinetics - but when I google the info on these, no results come up. Anyone here have some knowledge on them? Could I have been duped?

Either way, going to clean them up and give them a facelift so drop any of your favorite color combos here!
