Mid-Century Modern furniture is by far becoming the most collectible of
all home furnishings. Finding pieces in original near perfect condition
is becoming very difficult and prices are rising every day as collectors
and designers seek this for interiors of the rich and famous. What makes
these items so collectible is the post WW2 design elements and high
quality materials and workmanship. These designers were somewhat
international but many items were built by craftmen in the south eastern
United States which were close to the booming textile mills and hardwood
markets. One of the most exclusive distributors was Knoll which is
still in business today. Some of the designs have been in
production for years but most of the classics were retired in the
1960's. Eames was another major designer and distributor of
Mid-Century Modern designs who is still in business today. However
most of the focus of these companies has been more towards commercial
interiors as opposed to residential. |
