Vintage Bottom Heavy Chair
November 9th, 2009 Chair, Location, Long Island, Material, New York, Off the Market, Other/Unspecified, Textile, Type
The upholstery on this chair is hideous but what I really like about it is how heavy the bottom is, almost like it’s sagging into the ground. It looks extremely sturdy and masculine. Give it character by going with a bright upholster, contrasting the brutishness with something light and whimsical. It would be very surprising.

White Wrought Iron Chair
October 27th, 2009 Chair, Location, Long Island, Material, Metal, New York, Off the Market, Type, Wrought Iron
Now if I could only find the perfect wrought iron patio table to go with these wrought iron chairs. The mesh pattern on the backs and seats of these chairs are beautifully translucent. I would try out different cushions. I don’t really like the the ones in the picture.

Rocker-Thonet Bentwood Style
October 25th, 2009 Chair, Location, Long Island, Material, Metal, New York, Off the Market, Other/Unspecified, Other/Unspecified, Textile, Type
I think the frame of this thonet bentwood style rocker is actually metal. I haven’t seen much of that. The metal could use some cleaning and the upholstery needs to be redone but overall its a good value for something that could become great.

Bistro Set with Table and Two Chairs
October 25th, 2009 Chair, Glass, Location, Material, Metal, New York, Off the Market, Other/Unspecified, Table, Type, Westchester
This bistro set is an incredible value at $50. From the pictures, they look like they are in decent quality. Their potential lies within cleaning them up and making them shine. The owner said the paint is peeling off, but I suggest stripping it off and cleaning the metal. This set really has potential for great outdoor furniture.

Pink Country French Arm Chair
October 25th, 2009 Chair, Location, Long Island, Material, New York, Off the Market, Other/Unspecified, Other/Unspecified, Textile, Type, Wood
Pink on pink it way to matchy-matchy, but I believe this pastel colored chair would look great in a cobalt or dark blue room, where it could stand out. This is a pretty bold object, but that’s why its so appealing.
