I like a somewhat asymmetrical look, but wondering if the different heights here is throwing things off. I could swap the lamps so that the larger is on the shorter round table, but I think I prefer how they each look on the table they’re currently on.
Thinking about getting this Lane "cigarette table" and wondering if this lamp I have would look ok on it. Worth keeping in mind that the lamp is about 34" tall and the table is only about 17", so it is quite a bit taller (although I know midcentury lamps tend to be on the taller side, and tables on the shorter side.) Curious your thoughts!
Just bought this gently used Vitra George Nelson sunburst clock. After taking it apart to re-align the hands (they were way off at 12:00), it's looking great! Are these hands too bent though? I know they are supposed to bow outward slightly for clearance, but should I try to straighten them slightly? If the clock will run fine with them as is it doesn't bother me much. Sorry if this is dumb, I jut really don't know what kind of angle I'm supposed to see in these hands. Thanks!
First pic is the lamp and the table it is on currently. I love both pieces, but am wondering if this is too much wood-on-wood?
Alternatively, I'm thinking about getting a glass-top end table to put it on to break up the wood a bit. I love these Adrian Pearsall end tables (second pic), but does this seem like too much sculptural-wood stuff going on for one table/lamp?
Any other ideas are welcome!
They described it at the store as likely late 60s, Pearsall-esque. Curious if anyone has any info. Thanks!
