A Little Mid-Century Modern

[chrisglasier]

For a proper mid-century look, shouldn't the top be made of salmon-pink Formica with that boomerang pattern on it?

It's bound to come back.

Chris, you're probably right.

David, here's a slightly different version of your pull and the same case on a different base.

[Dave R]

Someone told me the pulls were on the doors incorrectly although the cabinet that was the inspiration has them the way I did them originally. Anyway, here's the left hand door turned around.

Dave,
I like your pulls as well as the second version of the base with the more-vertical legs. Are you planning to build this, or was this just a drawing exerise?

Thank you, David.

Well, it is probably mostly drawing practice but I would like to replace the old cherry sideboard we have now. The curent one is a piece made in the Amana furniture factory in 1961. It a beautiful piece. Solid cherry throughout and hand carved drawer pulls. There a gate leg table and four chairs, too. This was a dining room set my grandmother ordered from the factory and although it is beautiful furniture, it doesn't really suit us. Before we can get rid of the sideboard, though, we have to a place to put the contents.
