Mid Century Modern Furniture and Design

Iconic Modernist Furniture Designers

Adrian Pearsall 2011, Charles Ames 1978, his wife Ray 1988, Harry Bertoia 1978. Arne Jacobsen 1971, George Nelson 1986, Paul McCobb 1969, Eero Saarinen 1961, Harvey Probber 2003, just to name a few, were all iconic furniture designers from the mid century modern and Danish modern periods. All are deceased; their design craft has stopped. However, the excitement, energy and magic that they created with their work lives on in each piece that survives today.

How does such magic happen? How can a 60 year old couch, credenza, lamp or table touch our hearts? Why do they still excite? Why do they still energize? How do they make us feel brand new? Will our craving of their craft ever be satiated? I hope not.
