About the Item

Thaden-Jordan 1940’s Herbert Von Thaden Mid-Century Modern table & chairs 5pc set • As designed by Herbert Von Thaden & Donald Lewis Jordan • Manufactured by Thaden-Jordan Furniture Co. • Mid-Century Modern style Design features the unique bent wood application for which the designers were known for. During World War II, Donald Lewis Jordan launched his company in Roanoke, Virginia, USA, to produce plywood products for the US military. After the end of the war, he joined with aeronautics engineer Herbert von Thaden to form the Thaden-Jordan Furniture Company. They patented several designs during this time using thin birch plywood. The business closed in 1952. Additional details: dining table features curved legs (bent wood application) and square shaped table top, identifiable to an earlier design. Leaves can be pulled outward for an extended length to accommodate additional guests. A separate matching table top extension piece (leaf) is included for the extended length. Extension piece does vary slightly from the other pieces; slightly darker and muted. Four matching chairs feature the same polished finish, curved legs, inclined seating, and minimalist design. Underside section of seats include original manufacturer stamp and sticker information. Some of the legible markings include: "T/J Molded Plywood Furniture", "Thaden-Jordan Furniture Corporation, Roanoke, Virginia". This would make a great matching addition for anyone looking for that Mid-Century Modern touch in their eating/living spaces. Condition: This set is in overall excellent condition for it's age.

Mid-Century Modern Sculptural Driftwood Glass Planter Insert Coffee Center Table
Located in Thiensville, WI
Truly unique and one-of-a-kind driftwood coffee center table with planter inserts. Nature surely delivers some beautiful artwork, such as this sculpted wood base. The shape mimics that of two separate tree trunks with their entangled root bases. The strong base is realized with a 3/8 inch oval shaped glass top, customized with planter inserts which are fixed into each of the tree trunk stems. The planter inserts have metal spikes at the bottom to allow for secured placement of faux plants. Spike plates can be removed. You have the option to add a small pot or vase within both planter openings, or plant into the customized metal pots directly. Glass can be removed by lifting upward, in which metal pots are lifted and removed as well. Metal pots are what keep the glass secure to the driftwood base. We showcased 2 separate plant ideas for reference only; plants are not included in the purchase. The movement and fusion of this driftwood adds a very natural and organic feel to any design. Coupled with the ability to customize your own style of plants with the inserts makes this table an adaptable show piece. A rectangle center table...
