While Loading Up Another Estate Sale Attendee Asked "What Makes It So Valuable?" Good Question. I Would Have Liked ToThrow Around The Manufacturer's Name, France And Sons...Or Perhaps The Designer, Grete Jalk. The Truth Is...The Answer Is Simply Supply And Demand. Status: Rare Indeed.

Mr. M dragged his tired bones up out of bed Friday morning after only a couple short hours of sleep to attend an estate sale chock full of fantastic vintage Danish modern pieces.  I harbored a tiny bit of hope that I'd skip through the house nabbing tag after ridiculously under priced tag off lovely Scandinavian pieces...but it just wasn't meant to be.

The plan for this fine Saturday morning was to get up early enough to be at an estate sale just before opening.  The sale had lots of neat Vintage Modern goodies to be had, but nothing I couldn't live without...so it wasn't a "stake out" situation.  Then that damn alarm went off...and then just got turned off.  Mornings?  No thanks.
