While visiting my dad in my hometown, I was digging through Craigslist and quickly realized that the listing for "Table and four chairs" was a nice Arthur Umanoff set! Luckily I had my van with me, but it was still an hour north of my hometown which made it two hours back to Columbus. Well, it was a good "haul" however you define it
As you can see, everything looks to be in great condition and the table even comes with a glass top.
The legs are rather shapely.
Of course the tip off that it was an Umanoff design were the slats on the chairs
and the iron legs
Something doesn't seem right about the seat fabric, though
It seems to be bed sheet-like fabric. Let's see what happens if I grab a loose end and give it a yank...
Ahhhhh, the original seat cushions! Hmmm, not really that big of an improvement but the tones work better with the wood.
Nice find...and I'd take the original upholstery in poor condition over that awful paisley anyday.
ReplyDeleteWowee what a haul! looks fantastic even with the worn out cushions!
ReplyDeleteGood looking quailty set! Well except for that hideous fabric. I'm sure you'll find something appropriate to recover with...
