1950s KITE STRINGs FABRIC - A CLASSIC!

Today I'm thinking about 'KITE STRINGS' designed in 1955 by David Parsons for Heals Fabrics Ltd. It's a gorgeous atomic design with a strong scientific influence and has become something of a 1950s classic! The gorgeous zingy bright colourways this beautiful fabric was produced in , added a real lift to 50s homes after the gruelling war years.

It was produced in at least 3 different colourways; red, yellow and a very rare mauve-grey...here's a picture of the red colourway .

We have all 3 colour ways in stock and will be adding the wall- art and cushions to our new textile collection very soon...

LUCIENNE DAY ALL THE WAY....

Love Vintage Furniture has been collecting ( and adoring) Lucienne Day's wonderful textile designs.... we've had some stretched and mounted as wall art and popped them into our latest collection update...we chose; MEZZANINE; MISCELLANY; LINDEN & TICKER TAPE for starters...

DANISH INSPIRED ...

We had a visit last week from furniture designer and maker Liam Treanor. He came to have a good look around our warehouse for ideas and inspiration.

We both have a passion for mid century Danish design, particularly Finn Juhl and Arne Jacobsen.

The Arne Jacobsen Ant chairs and Egg table (Myran) suite is a wonderful example of design from this period, combining intricate production techniques with amazing materials to create a simple yet beautiful design.

(This suite is available on our website)

One of my favourite pieces from this era is Finn Juhl's Chieftain chair. I haven't found one yet, or even come close for that matter but one day I would love to own one.

You can really see the Danish influence in Liam's designs, have a look at the Alvar Aalto inspired Carabao chair at - www.liamtreanor.co.uk
