i can't tell from reading this review if the author is neglecting to mention, or just doesn't know that this is a knock off store . Organic Modernism is a spin off of white on white- this version of the store just knocks off iconic finn juhl, nakashima, serge mouille and bassam fellows pieces (extra reprehensible as the latter are living designers trying to build a design brand).

did he think that there was a gelatin texture because you told him there was gelatin in there? i have learned after 10 years of cooking for my fellow that he is often best left in the dark when it comes to the details of my recipes.

What about doing something like a rolling rack in pipe with a shower curtain hainging on it?

There is a third reason why the price quoted by an auction house or consignment shop is lower: They have to make something on selling the item. You and I, through craigslist or ebay, will never get top vintage market price on a piece. In order to do so, you usually have to sell through a dealer and they will take anywhere between 15 and 50% out of the overall proceeds.

Also- Especially in upholstered furniture, trends and tastes in upholstry can greatly effect the price.

just get a piece of butcher block and a couble of pedestal bases from a restaurant suppy shop.

You can use a Waffel Machine too.

This is the kind of statement that makes people hate design websites: "If you ever come across an old suzani with a low pricetag due to spotted wear….."

like last time I was on vacation, backpacking through Uzbekistan?

He's from Massachusettes- That's Scrimshaw over the mantel.

they cook in a similar kind of clay pot in Southern Italy. I love them. Things just sort of beautifully fall apart when roasted in a clay pot and they are great for pot lucks or entertaining because they retain heat for a while once out of the oven.

They're Thonet chairs. I believe they are called the Prague chair.
