Small Cheap Desk – $1

Mid Century Mudlarks are all about that super cheap find. Sometimes that means we acquire furniture that isn’t in pristine condition and that’s OK with us. Take this disk for example. Sure it needs a bit of TLC but when a seller says, “I’m taking any offers (best and probably first wins), including $1. Or free if you’re a good at negotiating.” we’re ready with our Mudlark Seal Of Approval… [CL]

White & Wood Side Chairs – $100

George Nelson X Herman Miller Desk – $30

This George Nelson designed desk for Herman Miller, model # MR5794, with 2 plastic drawers and 1 plastic hanging file drawer is a wonderful steal for $30. This isn’t the first George Nelson X Herman Miller desk that a Mudlark has stumbled upon but at this price ye’d be a fool not to buy this thing and throw it in your garage as an outside workspace.

Lovely Fabric Art – $15

Finding cheap Mid Century art that isn’t absurdly tacky is usually impossible. This 18×18 stretched fabric, which is signed Scuda, truly has an ambiguous form that doesn’t scream ”Look at me I’m a pretentious mid century vintage bitch.” Instead, this piece of art is simple, cute, cheap and easy on the eyes, which funny enough is the same description as a Mudlark.

Steal Of The Week: Stereo Console – $35

Yea that’s right, this is the Mudlark Steal Of The Week! For only $35 bucks this Danish stereo console with louvered speaker covers, record player, and LP album holder is an amazing find. The seller doesn’t mention if the stereo still works but I’m assuming by his description it still does. So I ask this question, why haven’t you emailed this guy yet?

4 Chairs + 1 Table = Cheap Set – $100

Talk about a steal. With 4 recently reupholstered danish chairs and a danish table, which includes two leafs, you can’t go wrong spending $100 bucks on this set. The table appears to be in good condition but as for the chairs the seller states “wood needs some TLC and lemon oil to rejuvenate.” Speaking of rejuvenating lemon oil it’s time for a late-night mudlark refreshment!

Nice Low Profile Dresserdenza – $50

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.]

Why hello there beautiful. – $40

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]

Attack of the interesting, possibly uncomfortable cheap sofa! – $80

This is without a doubt one of those pieces you look at and think, shit I could put that somewhere. But really, you know you can’t put it anywhere and even though you’re actively trying to dilute yourself into believing you could make it look right at home on your front porch or apartment balcony you know it ain’t gonna happen. But for those of you who can effectively lie to yourselves (which is a key to life-long success and happiness) then I suggest you rush out and buy this thing because it’s pretty damned cheap folks.
