OMG What Happened… Sorry

August 29, 2008


So there’s been no Mudlarkin’ in the last 28 days. For this we would like to apologize. Its really been a crazy couple of weeks. We went and checked out that scary blue couch and we had no clue what we were getting ourselves into. While looking at the couch the seller offered us some lemonade, and come on it’s summer who wouldn’t turn down such a refreshing drink. Well it turns out that summer refreshment was spiked with with LSD, I guess the seller thought it would make us appreciate the couch more. Turns out the LSD sent us Mudlarks on an underwater adventure directly from that fucking blue couch. The craziest part about it is when we snapped out of it a few weeks later we were still on the couch in the sellers house. Before realizing what had happened the seller crawled out of the living room closet and asked, “So you Mudlarks like the couch, I can help you load it up?”…

HUNTLEY SAYS QUALITY DESK FURNITURE - $200

August 1, 2008


Here’s a desk with matching “hutch”, as the seller calls it, that looks pretty solid. The desk is stamped HUNTLEY QUALITY FURNITURE CO. which probably means it’s.. quality… furniture? But seriously, if you could snatch this set for around $150 and add a little elbow restoration to it, us Mudlarks would come to your house and stamp the Mudlark Seal Of Approval over the Huntley one.

This chair is like a unicorn. BECAUSE IT’S MAGIC! - $350

July 31, 2008



Recipe for building one amazingly awesome Peter Hvidt chair:

1. One part solid wood hotness.
2. A handful of rounded edges and tapered legs.
3. Sprinkle on a pinch of Scandinavian understatedness.
4. Make the god damned arm rests float above the chair using your magic furniture building wand. Thereby restoring every ones faith in humanity, god, the earth spirit, the NBA and themselves.
5. Sell it on craigslist for $350 and make suckers who run budget concious mid-century furniture sites post it anyway because they just can’t help it. (I don’t know if you noticed, but the arms are like, floating….)

Nice Low Profile Dresserdenza - $50

July 31, 2008

Dresserdenza
noun

A piece of furniture that is both a credenza and a dresser simultaneously.

[English, the term arose out of a mudlark's need to describe the multitude of credenzas listed as dressers, and dressers listed as credenzas on the internet classified site craigslist.org.]

Knoll Reproduction Chair Is Fine With Me - $75

July 31, 2008


It’s fine because the chair still looks good. This office chair from Harper’s New York is a Knoll Reproduction and is in great condition (yea the pictures don’t do it justice). The mustard fabric with black & chrome frame is a great way to add a shinny look to your coma inducing office. $75 bucks for this thing’s OK, considering it’s in good condition. [CL]

Why hello there beautiful. - $40

July 29, 2008


Why don’t you come sit by my bed? I could rest drinks on you and stuff you full of past editions of The Economist. What da ya say?

What a steal this is though, for serious. $40 for a really nice looking night stand. If things like this popped up everyday IKEA would be lobbying for a ban on furniture reselling.[CL]

Dillinger, Dillingham Death Dresser - DUDES! - $100

July 29, 2008


[DISCLAIMER: John Dillinger probably didn't die inside of this dresser that was likely constructed some 25-30 years after his death. But for the sake of crappy alliterations we'd like you all to pretend real hard that he did.]

This is a fine looking dresser with a reasonable price. At first the thing looks kinda - simple - but then if you give a good honest stare down you began to see some really nice detailing. I’m thinking this one flies under the radar long enough for someone to snap it up and get themselves a nice deal on a piece that probably looks mucho better in person. [CL]

Danish wood framed couch, so very teak-o-licious - $200

July 29, 2008


I’m feeling this. It looks to be in fantastic condition, new upholstery, nice looking wood (at least from the crappy craigslist images). But the real selling point of this couch is the teak, everyone loves teak, those who don’t are robots or aliens. This is a widely known fact and if you don’t believe me look it up on wikipedia where this page supports my claims. [CL]
