It was still available Sat. afternoon, so after calling the seller we jumped in the car to go scope it out. We were sooooo exicited as we've been looking for a cool set for a while now. However..... after checking it out carefully, we discovered that it had been left outside for too many years, and the feet were rusted off. Corrosion had rendered restoration impossible. I guess if you were good at welding it could be repaired. .. maybe. But they were having a yard sale and had some neat 60s/70s lamps there. So we went home empty handed. But if we hadn't looked we would have always dreamed about the set that got away.

I guess we can't expect to find something tremendous every weekend. We actually had a heck of a find last weekend and were able to pick up a set of six Adrian Pearsall dining chairs! I guess all of our luck was spent on that one find because things were pretty bare for me today.OH MY MODhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03520517344293493019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6668802457367853649.post-40542718446270153482012-07-14T10:16:10.347-05:002012-07-14T10:16:10.347-05:00The set with the nice bases you were imagining cam...The set with the nice bases you were imagining came from the Lindbergh Value Village. The chairs were under $5 apiece and the backs were very discolored at the time. I couldn't see the price on the table. I wanted it so bad, but I didn't have the guts. Good job to the seller - definitely worth it!Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07295242260011135196noreply@blogger.com
