Fitz & Floyd, lithophanes, mid century finds, and more

The beautiful old camelback sofa went on its way this afternoon, first to a wood refinisher (A&D Furniture Repair in Lake Stevens) before heading to Jeffries Upholstery for its glorious new cover. I'm looking forward to showing you before and after photos, after....

So, we're looking forward to a 1980's rose sofa and loveseat delivery on Friday, and I'll try to get a photo up soon after.

Meanwhile, here are some new photos for you to enjoy:

A 3-quart Fitz & Floyd pitcher from 1988:

A luminous lithophane portrait in the bottom of a teacup, part of a Hayasi Kutani set:

Hadn't heard of lithophanes before this was consigned. Fascinating process, if you are interested: http://www.lithophanemuseum.org/what_is_a_lithophane.htm

A Danish modern mid century chair that can be taken apart for shipping or storage, and then easily reassembled to become quite sturdy and sleek again:

And, yes, it was...

And here's a comfy place to leave you, in the presence of 5 Polo Bear pillows by Ralph Lauren:
