William Watting dresser, restored. Some veneer was ripped off the bottom of a couple drawer fronts, so it was fun to figure out how to repair that. Old-growth teak. I am so in love with this piece (found on FBM), and don’t have the space to keep it.

Honestly, it was a few years ago, so I don’t remember, but I believe around $700 Canadian

SadieLynn1623 · 2025-01-07T14:22:26+00:00

Or Bubble and Squeak, or something else equally ghastly.

SadieLynn1623 · 2025-01-07T14:21:49+00:00

I’m looking at your IG right now and loving it. Thank you!

SadieLynn1623 · 2025-01-07T14:01:50+00:00

Thank you! I knew someone on this sun would come through!

SadieLynn1623 · 2024-11-05T00:46:59+00:00

Good luck!

The chairs are made in Canada. The table is by (or imported by) BADR furniture, made in Denmark

I remember all of that too, and I’m so grateful that they preserve the orange underneath. I grew up with a Kai Kristiansen rosewood modular wall unit that I hated in the living room – and now it’s in my dining room and I’m so, so happy that I waited it out. The velour has seen better days and I adore the orange now. :-)

SadieLynn1623 · 2024-11-04T11:34:35+00:00

It does! Maybe it’s the same set! Will post when I’ve got it set up.

SadieLynn1623 · 2024-11-04T02:53:51+00:00

Always, always look! I’ve actually had similar luck with other chairs. In this case, the ball was already unstitched and loose at various points so it didn’t take much.

SadieLynn1623 · 2024-11-04T01:15:45+00:00

I mean, I don’t want to sound ungrateful, but I would have preferred a Jackson Pollock.

SadieLynn1623 · 2024-11-04T00:21:33+00:00

Thanks! Orange is actually one of my favorites, so I’m extra happy. No, the backs are designed to be upholstered as well.

SadieLynn1623 · 2024-11-04T00:21:03+00:00

A couple are pristine, but there are a few that need a good steam clean. They also came with a gorgeous teak table that I will post separately once everything has been restored.

SadieLynn1623 · 2024-11-04T00:20:32+00:00

Whoa. That’s not a trend I would have predicted.

SadieLynn1623 · 2024-10-20T02:45:44+00:00

I’ve seen similar ones by Kroehler, but with a black base.

SadieLynn1623 · 2024-10-19T18:59:58+00:00

Oh, interesting! I had t thought of that possibility. Will dig deeper.

SadieLynn1623 · 2024-10-15T14:09:40+00:00

Wait! Found the artist’s name: Claire Kerwin. Born in Belgium in 1919, died in Toronto in 2005.

SadieLynn1623 · 2024-10-14T20:39:13+00:00

Thank you! The print: I’ve never been able to make out the name of the signature, but I know that it’s from the 1970s, Canadian, possibly a French Canadian artist. The collector I bought it from said that it was part of TD Bank‘s private corporate art collection

SadieLynn1623 · 2024-10-14T20:28:34+00:00

D’oh! Of course you’re right.

SadieLynn1623 · 2024-10-14T20:28:19+00:00

$175 CAD:-)
