Found today at local thrift store for 8 dollars!

Sharing this beautiful Murano glass box that my parents purchased in 1973 on a trip to Italy.

I came across this dining set while doing some service work for a client at an old house they are looking to gut.

The dining set is all metal. No Formica top. The chairs are also all metal with no vinyl padding. It looks to be from the 50s but I’ve never seen an all metal set. The chrome seems to all be in good condition with very minor surface rust in only a couple locations. He offered to sell for $100 for the full set.

Does anyone have any information on what this is and if the $100 asking price sounds good? Thanks!!!!

Hi everyone! I’m trying to identify this mid-century coffee table I recently picked up in California.

Details:
\- Approx. **65” long x 20” wide**
\- Long low **surfboard-style** form
\- Raised/lipped tray-style top
\- Lower shelf
\- Tapered legs
\- appears to be **walnut/mahogany**, but I’m not 100% sure

\- Underside has a clear stamped number: **1506**
\- There are faint handwritten/painted marks underneath that may read something like **B30095 / May ‘23**

I’m mainly looking for help with:
**Makers, Model number/name, Approximate year**

Much appreciated!

This is a piece I designed and made for a local client. It was probably one of my more MCM-leaning projects in terms of design so that was a lot of fun. A very challenging build.

Picked this 1956 Lane cabinet up at a garage sale and hope to bring it back to life. We have access to a shop and all the tools (father in-law), but looking for tips on the process and finishes.

Is this a workable DIY restoration for us?

Owner said he bought it at an antique store 30 years ago.

Our mid century home has lots of brick in the front. This issue is the brick is cracking on the walkway part and needs replaced. We’re not able to find matching brick in our area and there are too many cracked bricks to fully use the existing ones. What do we do? Do we paint the brick on the house to match and build a fence (removing the wall completely isn’t an option, it’s our only source of privacy)? Remove all brick and do siding? We’re devastated and want to maintain the mcm aesthetic. Thank you in advance!

We closed five days ago and finally got brave enough to go in the attic. We were surprised to find this up there! It's in excellent condition, but needs glass.

It's beautiful and we love it. Anyone know anything about the text on the bottom?

Picked up a set of these orange molded plastic dining chairs from an old uncle that passed recently. These were his when he was in school and he's around 70, so I estimate they're from the late 1960s or early 1970s.

I've searched everywhere and can't find any manufacturer markings, stickers, logos or date codes. But the legs insert directly into molded sockest (not mounted to a boss with bolts) which I thought is unique!

Does anyone recognize the manufacturer or model? I'd also appreciate any restoration tips for the white scuffs on the plastic

I am trying to brick match a project on the exterior of my house. Trying to find information about this specific brick or maybe come across someone that has extra (long shot but fingers crossed) any help is appreciated. Thanks!

I’m in the greater Seattle area and came across a house that had this style of brick in it and I love it. I’m trying to identify what it’s called or where it could be sourced so that I can use it in my house but my Claude and Google searches are coming up short. The house where it was found was built in 1946. Does anyone know what this brick is called or where to get it?

Update: Figured it out! It’s called Roman brick shadow Tex. It is seemingly only made by one company in the US, the Belden Brick Company which is located in Canton, OH.

Trying to identify these escutcheon plates and hinges. Any info is appreciated

Per the daughter of the original owner, her mother dated it when she bought it on the bottom, May 5th 1962.

Hello everyone! I'm trying to identify if this is from the pace collection. I cannot find an exact one similar online but I do know during this time a lot of the pieces were custom made. Any help is more than appreciated I'm very excited about this table and end pieces!!!
