Set of 4 Ludwig Mies van der Rohe MR10 Dining Chairs
Complete set of four chrome cantilever MR10 chairs by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, in brown leather. This set of chairs is an early 1960s example of his famous design produced by Knoll International. The MR10 chair was first designed in the 1920s, and this set of four features the chrome springs on the backs and seats. Later the design was improved, with a shortening of the springs and a reversion to an elastic corset cord. The chairs still bear the oval sticker marks on the back of the bottom of the seats.
MR10 chairs are really comfortable, and are a real design classic, as seen in many films and other media. Our MR10 chairs recently have been used to decorate the interior of a restaurant in London, which was featured in Architectural Digest, Dezeen, Elle Decoration, and many other publications (as shown in the images, which are property of Child Studio).
These four, as you can see from the images, are missing some springs, and the leather punctured holes are ripped off. All of the cantilever frames are, however, in great condition, with the expected 80 years of wear. We sell the chairs in their original vintage condition as seen, and that is reflected in the price of the set. If you wish to restore them with new leather, in any colour, please let us know and we can assist you.
Please note these chairs are available with three options: the complete set of 4, and then two pairs of two.
CREATOR: Ludwig Mies van der Rohe for Knoll International
PLACE OF ORIGIN: Germany / USA
DATE OF MANUFACTURE: 1960s
PERIOD: 1960-1969

Arturo Pani Heart Leaves Floor Lamp
An exceptionally impressive floor lamp in a playful organic form by Arturo Pani.
This ‘Acapulco Look’ floor lamp exemplifies the pure elegance of the Mexican Modernism Movement, featuring three branches with sculptural, heart-shaped silk shades. The lamp’s stem showcases a verdigris finish with gold accents, creating a stunning contrast that highlights its refined craftsmanship. The brass-plated base simply complementing its organic design. Each branch ends in a sculptural, leaf-like shade made of silk, adding a soft and luxurious touch. These shades emit warm, diffused light, creating an inviting ambiance.
This floor lamp would look amazing in any space and corner even behind a sofa or next to plants.
Pani’s innovative vision and ability to blend tropical playfulness with sophistication are evident in this work, making it a timeless masterpiece of mid-century design.
Arturo Pani (Mexican, 1915–1981) the "Decorator to the Mexican Elite", was a pioneering interior decorator and industrial designer of the early 20th century. His first major project, the renovation of Hotel Reforma in Mexico City, became a symbol of the Mexican Modernism Movement. His distinctive style, often referred to as the "Acapulco Look," gained widespread recognition. Pani's renowned firm, Studio Arturo Pani SA, was one of the most prestigious design studios in Mexico City during the Mid-Century and through the 1970s. Today, Pani's work is collected worldwide.

Maitland-Smith Tessellated Marble Dining Table
A stunning dining table from American design powerhouses Maitland-Smith, imported from a Texan ranch and originating from the late 1970s.
This piece consists of tessellated Emperador marble rectangles, placed together to create a dazzling and distinct pattern of rich browns, whites, and golds. Brass inlay strips complete this traditional base table. The whole table is sculpted in acrylic giving it this shape and laying all the little marbles pieces on top. A very thoughtful decision as this technique makes it more manageable in weight and stronger in time, unlike a solid piece of marble which would snap overtime.
This is a fantastic example of American design as it looked towards the excess of the 1980s. Still a very modern and also a classic piece that is easy to combine with many styles of dining chairs and rooms. This table sits comfortably six people but it can also sit eight as you can see in the picture.
Maitland-Smith began life in the seventies, the brainchild of London antiques dealer Paul Maitland-Smith. For years they have carved a reputation as an artisanal, innovative furniture makers, and their pieces are today highly sought-after.
This dining table is part of a set, which includes a coffee table, and two exquisite chairs. Please enquire for more information about these.
This dining table comes in two pieces, the base and the table top that fits on top easily, no tools needed.
Please contact us for international shipping quotes.
CREATOR: Maitland-Smith
PLACE OF ORIGIN: USA
DATE OF MANUFACTURE: c. 1970's
PERIOD: 1975 - 1985
MATERIALS & TECHNIQUES: Emperador marble, Brass Inlay, Acrylic
CONDITION: Good original condition.
WEAR: Wear consistent with age and use. Minor scuffs on the base, as can be seen in the photos. Nothing too distracting. Overall very good condition for its age.

Round Lucite and Glass Coffee Table
Round coffee table with lucite base in the manner of Charles Hollis Jones. The brass base supports three lucite leaf like pieces that on their return they support the round bevelled glass top.
The round shape of the coffee table is both practical and stylish, providing ample surface area for drinks, books, and other decorative items. The overall design of the table is clean and minimalist, with clean lines and a sleek silhouette that would complement any modern or contemporary interior design scheme especially if accompanied by a curved or a corner sofa.
As this piece is from the 1980s, there is some wear to be expected. But the overall condition is good, considering its age.
Please note that the table can be dismantled, so we can flat pack and ship this item internationally with ease.

Alfrank Neoclassical Floor Lamp
This impressive floor lamp is a playful, post-modern look at neoclassicism. The base is shaped like a bow, and from that protrudes three straight columns, meeting at an ionic head. A half-moon uplighter completes the piece, which is made entirely of iron. The lamp is painted with a rag roll verdigris effect, which gives the impression of textured plaster – very Romanesque.
This piece was designed by Alfrank, an Irish company founded by architect Alfred Cochrane and interior designer Frank Carroll. They began supplying American showrooms in 1984, but by the end of the decade, as the US economy slowed, the company focussed their attention on the British and Irish markets. Their pieces were stocked in Harrods and Selfridges, and today remain gorgeous examples of post-modern design.
Alfred Cochrane is part of one of Lebanon’s most notable aristocratic families. His family own the Palais Sursock, which was badly damaged in the 2020 Beirut explosion. This lamp was one of the many design pieces to be found inside the opulent 160-year-old palace, before its recent part-destruction.
Please note this piece is currently wired for a UK plug, although this could be changed depending on your location.
CREATOR: Alfrank
PLACE OF ORIGIN: Ireland
DATE OF MANUFACTURE: 1980s

Two-Tier Lucite Glass Coffee Table
This large, two-tiered coffee table is composed of two square panes of bevelled reinforced glass, gently curved at the corners. These are held in place by four ornate lucite columns, with a brass disc screw at the top to complete the piece. The table originated in the USA, and is an excellent example of 1970s American minimalism but still elegant and timeless that is almost invisible. It would look amazing in any interior either modern or vintage and with its ample surface you can decorate it with coffee books and other decorative items to make it feel cozy.
There are some small scratches in the lucite, as is to be expected with a piece this age. The glass is in good condition but may contain the odd mark. The table dismantles into two pieces of glass and the for legs which in their turn are divided and accommodate the glass.

Round Acrylic Ice Wave Mirror
A fantastic 1970s round mirror, with a frame made from crimped acrylic to give the effect of an icy wave.
The frame of the mirror is crafted from a clear transparent icy blue acrylic giving it a contemporary feel. This frame houses a round pane of mirror. The piece originates from Italy in the 1970s, and was originally used as a bathroom mirror –– although obviously it can be used in any room in the house, given its versatility. It would look amazing in a kids room, any hallway or bathroom!
The use of acrylic in the 1970s reflects the era's fascination with futuristic and space-age designs. The experimentation of different shapes and textures throughout this period makes this wall mirror a statement piece even today. It retains its appeal as a timeless and captivating piece of design.
This mirror is in good condition, considering it’s vintage, and would make an excellent addition to any kind of interior, plus it is easy to install.
