So, we seem to be coming across some Plycraft lately...

And it's some pretty cool Plycraft, as well.





First, here is the Cherner "Pretzel Chair" we found.   Also sometimes called the "Rockwell Chair", and the "Bernardo Chair".   But it was designed by Norman Cherner, and was the subject of a lawsuit when Plycraft attributed it to a factious "Bernardo" in an attempt to avoid paying Mr Cherner for his design.





Called the 'Rockwell Chair" due to a cover (titled "The Artist at Work") of the Saturday Evening Post from September 16th, 1961 that depicts an artist (possibly a younger "hipper" Rockwell?) at his easel, sitting in this chair.



Anyway, this chair is indeed designed by Norman Cherner, and while his children are now producing reproductions of this chair and several of of his other designs at the Cherner Chair Company, this is an original Cherner for Plycraft, dating to the mid 1960s.



Available in our showroom at Beehive Chicago for $900, this chair is in beautiful shape.

Danish Teak Lamps



















 Freshly picked, and they are incredible!  I was shocked to see a matched set in such good shade with both the inner and outer shades intact.  Of course, I swooped them right up so we could offer them to you.  $850 for the pair.

You misspelled "Yeti"!!

No, we didn't, actually.  Well, we sorta did...but not really.


But the main point is you know what we mean.  And you can remember us and find us easily.  Anyway, welcome to our blog.
