Trying to do research on some Conant Ball furniture and surprisingly find very little on the subject. Evidently, Wright designed the "American Modern" line in the late 1930's, but I'm wondering if all Conant Ball maple furniture through the early 1950's is Wright designed. Anybody?

I have this lovely Mid-Century Lamp depicting Winged Horse. It has a lovely Drip glaze and seems very much like some Haeger Lamps I've seen, but this one does not have a mark or label. Would anyone have any information or suggestions? Here are 3 photos which may help. Many thanks in advance for your assistance.

In buying some Broyhill modern furniture I got a Broyhill Premier Saga King Bed (late 50's/early60's?) with a bookcase headboard. It's only in fair condition, a definite restoration project. My question is this have enough value to be worth messing with? I've thought about listing it on eBay but it would have to be pickup only. I'm just not sure it's worth the time to list or just give it to charity. Thanks.

Need help id'ing and finding this lamp. I want one in this color. (I have seen them in yellow, gray, green and brown) but would like one in pink. If I knew the maker, I think I could search for it easier. My grandmother purchased this one at a a S&H greenstamps store in the late 40's or early 50's. Thanks! Link

I found 4 chairs today w/out a table. They appear to have been covered in black leather originally. Unfortunately like so many others they did not escape country blue in the 80's. I would guess that they are c. 1940's as the base is similar to icecream parlor chairs. I looked through my books and the designer that they remind me of the most is Saarinen but when I googled I really couldn't find anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello Everyone, I purchased this beautiful carafe from a thrift store the other day and the guy behind me asked if he could look at it. He flipped it over, looked at the mark, and said he thought it might be really valuable. It looks to be a W and a T in a circle and says Made Italy. Anyone know who the maker is? Click to see pics here: Link On the same token, I have a piece that is not signed. Looks like a Gustavsberg / Stig Lindberg / Lisa Larson type piece, but perhaps just a...

Hello everyone Thanks in advance for any help Id'ing these tables. I've searched the web and ebay and found nothing about the marks under these tables. I did find there is some sort of a connection (sorry, I cant recall now)between Herman Miller and Grand Rapids Mich, which makes me wonder if the maker marks under these tables is somehow a Herman Miller mark. Thanks again and I hope everyone here is having a great day!

I bought this lamp because I love it (not selling it) but have no idea it's history. It's huge! It is a mint green metal lamp with 3 arcs with performated metal lamp shades. It has a two prong plug but I have no idea if the cords are original.... There is no markers/designer/maker name on the lamp. Is it vintage or is it a reproduction? If vintage then what age? Is there a name for this kind of lamp? Photos in next postWhen the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the...
