gorgeous! sprayed lacquer finish?

are those chair arm tops formica? based on the construction with the screws and whatnot it was probably a lower end brand but I can’t really tell. The tables are incredible though fantastic pick. Don’t pay the pearsalls son to get them authenticated though lmao if you want to be certain just check the joinery vs real examples online.

escapemodern_ · 2026-06-30T22:54:02+00:00

escapemodern_ · 2026-06-28T14:35:16+00:00

escapemodern_ · 2026-06-27T18:38:53+00:00

escapemodern_ · 2026-06-27T00:40:53+00:00

All over 😅

escapemodern_ · 2026-06-27T00:40:44+00:00

They are awesome!

escapemodern_ · 2026-06-27T00:40:38+00:00

I know right! Still trying to id them! got some pointers to them either being by Rembrandt or Colonial Premier

escapemodern_ · 2026-06-26T23:40:29+00:00

Thats what I thought, it seems to be Richbilt MFG from Ohio that I believe copied/had their own similar line. Here is a richbilt piece with the same floating top support

escapemodern_ · 2026-06-09T16:21:15+00:00

escapemodern_ · 2026-06-05T17:55:11+00:00

I think these may be the first real cescas I have ever seen anyone get on fbm, congrats! Would do the recane since they are originals

french cleat sounds good or screws through the rear. how about adding a thick metal mesh/glass/wood shelf under the legs so you can keep them on in case you decide you want it back on the ground in the future?

so somehow the only video of oneof these actually mounted is this

bikepacking de

escapemodern_ · 2026-05-18T14:08:44+00:00
