days to post.

wow, holidays are rough. i really love getting to see family, and time off work. but all the extra gigs and holiday time instrument/present set ups really take it out of me. somehow this year it was extra long. i did however take a little time to go hunting, which i've been taking a break from. maybe everyone else was too!

 this little lamp was waiting in a peddlers mall just this monday. no shade, and i'm not sure this is the one for it. man i gotta find a decluttered place to take pictures. just a cool little atomic wire and lucite lamp.

i've actually had a pair of these baughman style floating cube chairs for a while.

the backs aren't quite like any others i've seen, but they are made from chromed flat bar steel like the baughman style. the maker tags are gone, but there are labels from a local public library on the bottom, as well as the upholstery shop that recovered them at some point. oddly enough the same company did my $5 9ft auction couch. since these were sold as institutional stuff they are super heavy built.

 these are my favorite recent find. i actually got a set of 3 of these kent coffey perspecta tables at big al's charity thrift. one has a drawer, the other 2 don't. usually al is very high on his prices, but i picked all of these up for about what he wanted for any other single table. they aren't perfect, but they're still stunning. i've yet to clean them up and they're still very presentable in use. only the table with the drawer has the stamp. i never would've known what the others are without it either as the telltale handle from this series obviously isn't on them either.

i wasn't going to post this shot since there is so much clutter, but i have to face the facts that i just like clutter. maybe one day i'll be able to go minimalist like all these other people into modern design seem to think is necessary. either way this arc lamp i picked up at unique for $15 at least goes with the clutter nicely. i'd actually seen one the weekend before for $225 at goss antique mall, but just like the perspecta china cabinet thats in the same booth it was just out of my range.
