You can image what my heart was doing when I spied this in a roadside rubbish pile yesterday .
Gasp
Could it be?
The owner was around so I couldn't hang about inspecting it for stamps or labels
I quickly placed it in the back of the car, thanked the owner (who insisted I come back latter and take more when I had more time!??) and headed straight home.
So I get home and nervously turn it over to find this.
It says Munnoch Sydney NSW??
Anyone?
I googled it and found nothing.
So its not what I was hoping for, what are the chances that I would find an original Eames Dsr side shell? really, what was I thinking?
But I don't mind, this is still a very beautiful mid century piece regardless, well made, fibreglass, comfortable, old and free.
I love it.

What a groovy chair. And the roadside finds are always the best!

Wow! That is a super find!
ReplyDeleteGreat find!
ReplyDeleteI have 6 replicas by MUNNOCH for sale on Ebay right now. They produced quite a few in the 60s it seems.

I’d like to visit your weblog more typically however recently it seems to be taking without end to return up.
ReplyDeleteI visit from work, and our connection there may be pretty good.
Do you assume the problem might be on your finish?
