Curbside Pickup- Knoll Executive Chairs designed by Eero Saarinen
BEST CURBSIDE PICKUP TO DATE! I found these beauties next to the dumpster behind a strip mall. A weird and unexpected place to see designer furniture.

Art Deco Silver Plate
I found these three items at goodwill today. They are silver plated brass. The tea/coffee pot and sugar bowl are not marked. The canister and stand are marked Laris, although I cannot find any information on this manufacture. They have a lot of wear, I believe all items are authentic art deco. I am fairly close to the Brass City (Waterbury CT). These may have come from there?
Art Deco Antelope Mirror Syle of Edgar Brandt
I have not been able to find any information on the manufacture of this mirror. It is definately very high quality and heavy. I went to the Habitat for Humanity Restore looking for appliances and light fixtures and came back with this. It was worth the trip. :)
