Scavenger: cute vintage 50s armchair--curvy, needs work for $25

at45363ea0808862.50140716.jpgWe agree with Robin. This chair would make a great reupholstery project. The shape of the chair reminds us of a shorter, puffier version of Wegner's Papa Bear chair. Baby bear chair, maybe? Does this mean it's just right?-MM

150 bucks for a ripped up lamp? Is that something that can be successfully (and easily) repaired?

That chair in the picture is kind of cute.

Tears or rips in Nelson bubble lamps cannot be fixed. The seller must be joking to describe it as having only "some damage". Or that this damage faces "the back" of the lamp -- there's no "back" to a cylindrical object, dude.

This lamp is worth about $20, and that's because the stand is salvagable.

Whoa...I don't know how I missed that. Mea culpa. Shouldn't have posted the cigar lamp.
