1940s Hadrill Horstmann Floor Standing Counterweight Lamp Rare Early Prototype
Posted by admin On February 21, 2019
Extremely rare Hadrill Horstmann counterweight lamp. I know of only one other in existence which is in a private collection. This lamp predates the’Roller’ design with a large suspended weight. The weight is sprung on its shaft. I believe it was a prototype which was superceded by the roller. Interestingly the limbs are not stamped with branding. I think at this stage decal labels were used but would have been on magnifier cover. No repainting on top half it’s all completely original scuffs and all. Though actually it’s in remarkably good condition for its age (1940s). It has been disassembled, thoroughly cleaned and polished. Every but and washer is present and original including all the knurled nuts. Corners of shade have small bolted reinforcements. Very subtle but may not be original. Stand has been repainted. It connects to lamp via a solid steel shaft which protrudes about 4 inches from base and exactly fits the middle tube. Side brackets can be adjusted. There are four independent parts so the current arrangement is just how I thought they looked tidy. Not sure how these were originally used. All rewired with new braided flex. Vintage bulb holder which is properly earthed and is switched. I’ll do my best to wrap her up but I can’t box it. My estimate is it weighs around 20 kilos. I’ll deliver within 30 miles free of charge. The item “1940s Hadrill Horstmann Floor Standing Counterweight Lamp Rare Early Prototype” is in sale since Tuesday, February 5, 2019. This item is in the category “Antiques\Antique Furniture\Lamps\20th Century”. The seller is “captain_kipper” and is located in Sheffield. This item can’t be shipped, the buyer must pick up the item.

RARE Early Vintage 1950’s George Nakashima Studio Pair Captains Chairs Walnut
Posted by admin On February 20, 2019
D ROSE MOD, Inc. RARE Early Vintage 1950’s George Nakashima Studio Pair Captains Chairs Walnut. Listed for sale is an original pair of George Nakashima captain’s chairs, never refinished and in gorgeous original condition. Uniquely, the two chairs vary dimensionally from more recent examples produced at the Nakashima Studio. Per the last two photos in this listing, the chairs were both brought to Mira Nakashima for authentication and assessment. Due to the informal nature of production in the 1950’s, Mira believes these to be early examples prior to George deciding on a single specific dimension. She also believes that they very well may have been special ordered for a couple with one taller and one shorter individual. As a result, the backrest crests vary from one another. Mira will be providing a written letter, which will be made available to you upon purchasing the chairs. Furthermore, I have an order card (not specifically mentioning these chairs, as it was a later order card) from the Nakashima Studio from the same family, as this came from an estate with many Nakashima pieces. The price listed is for one chair. Both chairs are available. And I will make sure that it is as inexpensive for you as possible. I work with a shipper locally who has great prices and has been complemented often on their superb packing. D ROSE MOD was founded in order to pursue a passion for modern design. The business began as a collection with an emphasis on furniture by Charles and Ray Eames. This collection now explores modern design icons across many decades, designers, and materials. Today, D ROSE MOD offers collector and museum quality pieces with the hope that you will share the same passion. Thanks to years of experience and familiarity, we are frequently able to refresh our inventory with rare pieces by designers such as Charles and Ray Eames, Mies Van Der Rohe, Le Corbusier, Hans Wegner, Florence Knoll, Poul Kjaerholm, George Nakashima, and many others.
