Here’s a lounge chair with an awesome look! It is made of genuine black leather and chrome and is in great condition for the age, with no rust on the chrome or obvious wear/damage to the leather that can’t be fixed up with some saddle soap! Unsigned but very much in the Marcel Breuer style and absolutely 1950’s vintage!

1960’s Smoked Lucite & Chrome Cube Shelf / Curio Cabinet – SOLD

Very 1960’s! That’s the best way to describe this Chrome & Smoked Lucite Cube Shelf! It stands 66″ tall and 14″ wide and is a really great piece for your studio or Mod living room! The bottom lucite cube has a touch of damage on one of the fronts, but pretty minor and not easily noticed, especially if that’s used as the back. My pictures don’t do it justice, come by and take a peek at it!

1950’s Mid-Century Modern KLING Furniture Maple Bedroom Set – SOLD

Here is a stunning 1950’s Mid-Century Modern Bedroom Set, by Kling Furniture Co., which was very highly regarded in their day, much like an Ethan Allen. The set is solid maple with brass accents, no veneers, amazing quality and craftsmanship! It includes a tall chest, long bureau with mirror and two nightstands. The tall chest has some gouges on the top sides from being moved improperly and the wide bureau has a couple small knicks here and there, mainly on the bottom. The nightstands are near mint. Overall the set is extremely clean and looks amazing, a real treat from the 1950’s!

Jens Risom for Knoll Dining Table & 4 Strapped Chairs – $995

Here is a spectacular set by legendary designer Jens Risom for Knoll! It includes a dining table and 4 faux-leather strapped chairs, with a stunningly simple design. The table top has some damage and wear and I would suggest a refinishing of the top, but I will clean it up best I can for you. The chairs have been re-strapped and it is an easy job to replace if you want them to be real leather again, but they are in good condition the way they are and quite comfortable! You’ll be hard pressed to find this set again, so if you like it, come on in!

Wowww! This is an enormous White & Cream Shag Rug! It is 12′ 9″ in diameter and is in very nice condition. It has a very small and minor red stain near the middle which can likely be cleaned out and is maybe a few inches in diameter.

Very Unusual Antique Crescent Park Paper Mache & Plaster Bunny Rabbit – $499

Well, you certainly won’t find another one! This is an authentic Paper Mache and Plaster Bunny Rabbit Head from Crescent Park! It’s in very nice overall condition for the age, but does have some issues. The plaster behind the ears needs to be redone to support the massive ears again, which is easily done. I am pricing it at $499 as is, if I complete the work I will bump up the asking price. This is a tremendous opportunity for any collector of fair or amusement park memorabilia or a very enthusiastic rabbit collector I guess. Come take a peek at it!

STUNNING Rosewood, Teak & Walnut Danish Modern Dining Table & 2 Leaves – $1499

Wow! When we got this in it was a beautiful table, but when we polished it up and put the leaves in, this thing just turned stunning! It is a combination of Rosewood, Teak & Walnut, all layered in planks next to each other, just amazing style! The way it is in the picture, it measures 38″ wide and 100″ long! With the leaves out it measures 60″ long, and it stands 29 1/2″ tall. It is in overall very nice condition, with a couple minor cup rings, which could be polished out if you work it and some tiny knicks to the black legs, also easily touched up (I’ll probably have this touched up by this weekend actually) and one minor hit to the corner of the table top, which I pictured. If you’re in the market for a table and you like the pictures, come on in, because you’re going to love this table in person!
