CHAIR PAIR


Why are good vintage chairs like buses? Because you wait around for ages and then two come at once! We have just taken delivery of a second vintage Parker Knoll chair with solid teak frame. This time we have had it recovered in a classy teal blue tweed and together with the cool grey tweed version they make a great pair. For prices, sizes or more information on any items in stock, please email geoff@kirkmodern.com

LIGHT FANTASTIC

Very excited with our latest find.... a set of 3 original 'Cascade' metal lamshades designed by John & Sylvia Reid for Rotaflex - the Rolls Royce of vintage lighting! Originally intended to be hung in a cluster of three or more, they are now more often hung in a row over a kitchen bartop or a dining table. These shades are in A1 pristine condition, looks like they are unused. Made from anodised steel tube with coloured perspex inserts - these shades look absolutely amazing when illuminated and give a stunning effect. These shades are very very very rare and highly sought after by Mid Century Modern collectors. For more detail please contact geoff@kirkmodern.com
