Bullet Planters
A few years ago we carried a fairly short lived line of  reissue bullet planters that deemed so popular we could never keep them in stock.  The manufacture stopped producing them and thus they became unobtainable.  We have just uncovered a limited number of these planters, some in black and some in orange.  These along with the white were the most requested colors back when we could get them.  The bullets are a hard yet semi flexible molded plastic.  They are incredibly strong so no chipping or cracking issues, so often seen in the fiberglass versions.  The color is solid all the way through so no fear of fading either.   The tripod floor bases are black metal, very sturdy and strong.  We are very limited on stock and once these are gone, that's it.  Inquire on availability

Hanging Cone (flower) Lamps

Set of three mid century modern hanging flower amps, c. 1950s or 60s.  All are the same except the cord / chain lengths on top. Each consists of an upper cone that has a light bulb socket and a lower cone that suspends from the upper via three little chains. The bottom cone was designed to hold a small plant or flower arrangement.  Another idea is to leave empty and allow light to bounce into the bottom cone and reflect back out crating a very cool effect in a dark room.  They are well made and the cones are a thin brass (or brass color metal) with white interiors. The top cone that contains the light bulb has a few small slotted perforations that allow heat to escape.  Each double cone light measures 24” long (each cone 9” high by 5” diameter at the widest point). The hanging cord / chains are 12”, 8” and 4” in length.  Condition is excellent. They are clean with a few little pencil eraser size dimples here and there and a few light scratches.  $145.00 Set of three SOLD

Teak and Iron Magazine Table

Fantastic vintage modern Magazine table in the manner of Tony Paul, c. 1950s. Beautiful real teakwood veneer top set within a black iron sculptural base. Very functional design! Measures 22.5” by 14” by 18.5” high. In great condition, wood grain is warm, very clean and just scrumptious…iron base shows some typical patina age.  SOLD

Nesting Tables - Van Keppel Green

Rare set of nesting tables by Hendrik Van Keppel & Taylor Green, c. 1950s. We got these with the rare pair of Settee chairs (not included with this auction, but see our seller list for them). Both the chairs and tables rattan are an exact match. This is a triple tier set of tables constructed of woven rattan over iron frames. Table measurements are as follows:

Large 17.5” by 17.5” by 18.25” high
Medium 15” by 15” by 16.25” high
Small 13” by 13” by 14.25” high

All are solid and still very useable. These likely spent a fair amount of time outdoors so they do show plenty of patina age and wear normally associated with rattan of this vintage, nothing that affects their use. The smallest table shows the most age, but again, all are very structurally sound and ready to use.  SOLD

Settee Chairs - Van Keppel Green

RARE pair of mid century California modern Settee Lounge Chairs designed by Hendrik Van Keppel & Taylor Green, c. 1950s. The very functional unique design allows the set to be used as two separate lounge chairs or a two person Settee. Constructed of woven rattan over an iron frame, each chair has a single arm (left and right), thus creating a settee when used side by side.

Each chair measures 30” high (ground to top of seatback by 26” wide by 23” deep. Height from ground to seat is 15.25” high. Both are all original and structurally sound, thus still very useable. These likely spent a fair amount of time outdoors so they do show plenty of patina age and wear normally associated with rattan of this vintage…but again, nothing that affects their use. New rubber feet have been added since we took the pics.
