Where did your love of MCM begin?

Mine was the Golden Rondelle :)

I don't have the amazing design style and collections most of you do, but I love seeing your pics and transformations!

Thrift store find

I thrifted this table and chairs the other day and just can’t seem to find info about it anywhere. I was wondering if someone here could point me in the right direction. Thanks!

My offer got accepted on this 1970s Mac Lamp designed by Sir Terrence Conran. Off to collect it next week

It looks really striking in white imo and is going to look nice in my spare room when I overhaul it over the coming weeks

Second Pic is the Mac Lamp range found in an online 1977 Catalog

Is this price for a Lane Acclaim coffee table even remotely sane?

A local vintage shop has what appears to be a really nice Lane Acclaim table listed for $900. I haven’t confirmed they refinished this piece but it’s likely. Even with a good refinish job this seems very high compared to some of the numbers I’ve found in this sub and elsewhere. Is this at all a defensible price? I could always make an offer but I’m not sure what’s appropriate. All my research so far has turned up people buying these at estate sales for less than $100 and then refinishing them themselves.

Where to Buy Weird but Cool Couches

Most couches have neutral colors that dont really stand out. Im trying to find something that will stand out color-wise or texture-wise while still being comfortable. What stores/places should I check out?

Budget is $800 USD

A few light fixtures I saved today from being trashed

House nearby recently sold and is being gutted inside. I saw these light fixtures on the Redfin listing and kept my eye on the house since it sold. Asked the contractor doing work about them, he said they were going to throw them out. đŸ€Šâ€â™‚ïž He let me remove them and save them!

Rinaldi Chairs?

Hey folks! Found these today on marketplace, they seem Rinaldi-ish but i cant identify the model. Anybody have any insight at all into these chairs? In rough shape but I think they’re awesome looking.

help id this set from my grandparents home

hey y’all
i just snagged this set of seven from my grandparents home. they built the house in atlanta in 1954 and basically everything in there has just been there since the beginning.
the set seems to be mdf or similar pressed board with a shell and walnut grain. the grain chips away to a grey base layer. there are no screws or hardware in any of it, the pieces fit together and bite into place. there is no label or manufacturing information on any of it. just curious!

brett.

Any info on this coffee table before I donate it?

Thrifted it for $10 when I got my first apartment, it was my first piece of furniture. I just bought a house & it doesn’t really fit the vibe anymore, but I’m sad to let go of it. Is it worth anything or any sort of collection?

My beautiful Makeup Vanity- Need help please finding chair!

Hello! I slowly over the last few years pieced my vintage looking makeup vanity together and till this day I'm still in love with it! Holds a good amount of makeup, without allowing you the opportunity to start hoarding tons of products and is very mid century style. Till this day, I have been having an issue finding the right chair, I am looking for a chair to compliment the vanity, preferably a beautiful olive green color chair with brass or gold, but I am open to anyone's suggestion out there. Thank you all in advance for taking time to look and help me!

It got away 😭

There’s a habitat for humanity near my house I hadn’t been to in a long time that I finally went back to. Got a small sink for the tiny half bath in my house and then spotted this at the back of the store, with a sold sticker on it 😭 I have the same model of Perception coffee table but this had sold three days earlier. I was asking a worker how long they hold for since it had been three days by then. She said she knew who bought it and would pass along my contact info.

The original price wasn’t a steal but very fair considering. However when the guy called me he was trying to upsell me at a 250% markup, def too rich for me. But old buddy is about to have some competition at this spot.

Still happy to have found the perfect small sink for my half bath for 15 bucks.
