Just a heads up that you can find some of my collection also on Etsy, under the names "Huntartandantiques" and "salyarcht."  My plan is to showcase on Etsy some of the smaller vintage pieces that have previously only been shown as a larger shelf grouping.

Eames Shell Chairs - now 3!

Yellow, Parchment (White) & Orange - 3 

wonderful vintage, ergonomic, early 50's 

Eames Fiberglass Shell Side Chairs with 

original black legs, swivel feet & H-base by 

Herman Miller.  Some of the original

stickers are left on the bottoms, & there is 

the famous Herman Miller stamped logo 

stamped on the Parchment-colored one because 

it was one of the 3 original colors.

     

(See that one listed separately also, in a

May post.)                                                    

All 3 have age-appropriate 

patina & some wear marks.  The photo 

colors are a bit off - the orange is more 

orange & less red, the yellow much deeper(BOTH SOLD)

                                                                                       & the white, creamier, as shown in the side view.  Ca 1950.

                                                                                       Three (3)     $750.
                                                                         

 
Nelson Platform Slat Bench

This slat bench in ebonized wood, originally designed in 1948 by George Nelson for HermanMiller, is the ultimate iconic multipurpose display & resting place.  It is one of the best known images of mid century modernism.  Measuring a handy 48" x 18" x 14" H, the bench/table was originally meant to support heavy storage pieces, making it functional as well as beautiful.  Signed.   Ca 1948.       $725.
