Our Zenith manufactured red orange shell is on its original H base. It was made between 1955-1957. I don’t want to change it because it’s totally original. But I want a rocker.
The table serves little use for me to be honest. The table (which does flip up) is also very low and it touches my thigh. Annoying.
I ordered zinc and birch rocker legs yesterday from Modern Conscience who specialise in HM/Eames restoration. Can take three weeks to get here from Seattle but they’re made in Seattle and use 100% FSC wood - which cannot be said for other reproduction bases.
Now that we have space, we’ve gone a bit chair and furniture mad. It helps that there’s just so much good vintage furniture to buy here...
