NOW SOLD Laurel Lamp Co Dome / Tulip Chrome Floor Lamp with Frosted Glass Shade circa. 1950’s

NOW SOLD here is a nice example of the iconic Mushroom / Tulip Floor lamp by the Laurel Lamp company circa. the 1950’s /60’s (fully labeled) . Although I have not been able to find out who designed this lamp, they were clearly influenced by the works of Eero Saarinen and his Tulip series of table and chairs. This is most evident in the tapered(with a unique sparkle like finish on the base) lamp base which is very similar to the bases of the Tulip chairs and tables. Chrome finish and frosted glass dome shade give this lamp a very unique appearance, and throws a very appealing light. The lamp measures approximately 5 foot in height. No cracks or chips in the shade, and the chrome is in nice shape with no flaking. This would be the focal point of most any mid-century modern / atomic age home. NOW SOLD

SOLD Pair of Royal Metal Co. Industrial Arm Chairs.

NOW SOLD For sale here is a vintage pair of Retro style Arm / Club Chairs. These were made by the Royal Metal and Manufacturing Company of Canada, who were a contemporary of such companies as Steelcase (best known for there iconic Tanker Desks and chairs ) and Shaw Walker who were on the cutting edge of Industrial Furniture Design during the 1940’s and 1950’s. These have all the hallmarks of good industrial / Machine Age design. They have a solid stance which leans back slightly giving the illusion that the chair is about to get up on it’s own and walk away. Very simple lines, and easy to maintain surfaces. In this case The one piece arms and legs are made out of polished stainless steel, with early plastic (possibly Bakelite) arm rests and a mottled reddish brown vinyl upholstery. Each chair measures as follows : Seat height is 18 inches, arm height is 25 inches, back height is 32 inches. Chair width is 21 inches at it's widest part, and the chair stands 28 inches in depth (front to back). The chairs are in very nice condition. The only real flaw that I can see is one small split of the vinyl (less that ½ inch long) at the seat front where your legs hang over the seat, and a small scuff at the top/back headrest area. Neither are very noticeable but are mentioned for accuracies sake. I took pictures of the fronts back and sides (including one of the small split) for you to be able to judge condition for yourself. This would greatly compliment any Eames Era Mid Century modern or Industrial / Machine Age living space. Or add a slightly retro accent to any contemporary room. Please feel free to email me any questions you may have, or for more pictures. NOW SOLD
