Depends on style for sure. Chromcraft's "Sculpta" chairs (featured on Star Trek) sell for a lot but most of their furniture is lower quality,...
Difficult to find something like this that was not mass produced in standard sizes. There is one on Ebay now, but as you've found, it is narrower...
You could also try this style with a sleeve (7mm). They are cheap at $2.00 for packs of 20 at woodworker.com. [ATTACH]
Funny, I just sold a small bookcase with those same shelf pins. It was missing a few so i went to the local Ace yesterday and bought the brass...
Image searches return a few described as "Nasrid or Post Nasrid Dynasty, late 15th, early 16th century Andalusia (Spain)", like the one pictured...
Still making it in 1952, though yours is likely early 1940's based on tag and history provided by say it slowly. [ATTACH]
From a 1942 catalog available on the Grand Rapids Public Library website. Price was $53.90 at the time. [ATTACH]
I came across this table at a Goodwill in Houston a few months back and the lines caught my eye enough that I stuck my phone under to see if it...
I don't know a lot about Weiman but I'd guess 60's or 70's and probably walnut veneer. I agree that Restor-a-finish would be a good choice on these.
I've had the best results from Pinterest's image search tool, though they have made changes recently that seems to have made it less effective. I...
Along with a photo of the table legs, a photo of one chair against a solid background would help us do an image search. And is the metal brass or...
Looks like it could be this mahogany bed from early 20th Century catalog of W.K. Cowan and Company of Chicago. Not a huge demand for this style...
Yes, the ReStore in my town gets some pretty good stuff too. They seem to have a deal with the local CB2 and get their slightly damaged items...
True, I shouldn't assume the new members know about 1stDibs. When I first started getting into MCM furniture about 10 years ago I bought an...
Even the charity shops are getting tech savvy. The Assistance League thrift store in my town posts on Instagram daily and has 1,823 followers....
Sorry, posting the chair from 1stDibs was my attempt at humor, which apparently failed. I've posted many times here about their wildly inflated...
Yes those scores are few and far between, certainly not something you can build a business on, especially these days when more people are...
I agree that in general the items you find at thrift stores and consignment shops are low to medium quality reproduction-type pieces. But the...
Thanks, James, that is helpful info. What are the signs on this chair that it's machine made?
As much as I enjoyed komokwa's response, I will offer this glimmer of hope to our new friend Scott. A little elbow grease, some new upholstery......
