I want those chairs! Gorgeous!
This would be a fabulous room. Interestingly, Asian elements were popular in the postwar period especially in the 60s during the Chinese cultural revolution. Fast forward, and the colors and lines still look so fresh! Nice mashup!
This looks quite a bit like my parents' living room - well, except for the yellow upholstery. Those chairs are fab!
Agree, chairs are fab. But the elements seem too disparate for my taste. Of course, I'm sure some talented person could put it together in a manner that would blow me away.
Yes please! What a lovely collection of pieces. Excellent choices for a Hollywood Regency interior. I agree with 50s Pam, there is such a sense of timelessness about these. The cabinet is divine!
i love this post. first the ditzel chairs are one of my favorites, and i've seen them sell for more. more importantly, you've highlighted a great if lesser known designer for the at community; her hanging egg chair, her crib, and her high chair look as fresh as ever 50 years later. most importantly, you've put mid-century modern in a non fetishistic or time capsule context. very smart.
who buys this stuff?
those are completely absurd prices.
aghhhhhh :(
The chairs are beautiful! Viva Danish design!
I'm sorry to say that I don't like any of it. Maybe if those chairs were upholstered in a different color. This is just not my taste.
A PAIR of club chairs for $4400 is NOT completely absurd. Ditto that painting.
Want to see more stratospheric prices? Head to 1stDibs or any Design Center in America...
Ikea, West Elm, and Target have spoiled us for what "real furniture" should actually cost, let alone pritisne vintage pieces with pedigree and provenance.
And ps, these same pieces in NYC would be triple these prices.
re: "some talented person could put them together in a manner that would blow me away."
Um, I think Janel already did! :)
Janel--
I don't say this often (ever??) but you could TOTALLY do a room for me any time!
And I can totally see that green chest flanked by bright yellow silk drapes... and with an emerald green velvet sofa.
Hotcha!
Those chairs are stunning - Suddenly I'm not minding yellow so much!
