Stanley Occasional Table

Posted on April 25, 2013 by Erik W in danish modern, mid century, mid-century furniture, midmodmen, minnesota, modern, retro, vintage

It may be called an occasional table, but this beauty by Stanley is actually a table all the time. It’s been completely refinished by Mr. Vibe and has a marvelous box veneer pattern on the table surface. There are two drawers, making it very roomy.

Dimensions = 28″ square x 20″ high.

**SOLD**

In case you’re curious about what the table looked like before Mr. Vibe refinished it, here goes …

Quite the difference, eh?

(It looks even better in person. Take it from Ms. Vibe.)

A. Eberoth – Kontorsmobler Rail Ticket Agent Cabinet

Posted on March 30, 2013 by Erik W in antiques, mid century, mid-century furniture, midmodmen, minnesota, retro, vintage

We know. We know. Our business name is “Mid-Century Vibe”, meaning we deal in stuff from the mid 20th century. Try though we might to stick to that, sometimes we just run across something soooooo cool we can’t not buy it. We’re kinda like Julianne Moore in that scene from “The Lost World: Jurassic Park” that way. “She can’t not touch” and we can’t not buy. This antique rail road ticket agent’s cabinet is one of those things.

It is marked “AEK – A. Eberoth – Kontorsmobler/Stockholm” and features dual down-pull roll-top desk style doors that reveal a wealth of storage, from pull out shelves to open spaces. It is constructed of wood with oak veneer and includes the key. We have decided to leave this beauty as is. Its chips, dings, and coffee cup ring add to its character and give it life. It would function perfectly well as the storage cabinet it was intended to be, but would also make a lovely bar cabinet.
