Retro CoMO

Looking for a reason to head to St. Louis this weekend?

Kitchen Table Set.  I love the detail on the pink and slate tabletop, and the extra chrome detail on the blue chairs.  (I really love the metallic blue vinyl.  I think it’s my favorite color for metallic vinyl.)

$100 in St. Louis.  Here’s the link: Retro Dining Room Set.

Ceramic Punch Bowl.  The seller thinks you could use it as a soup tureen as well.  I’m not sure how big the cups are, but I like the color.  Very 70s.

$10 in Festus.  Here’s the link: Ceramic Soup Set.

Tweed and Metal Chairs.  Looks like they’re in good shape.

$125 for both in Olivette.  Here’s the link: Retro Vintage Tweed Chairs.

Black and White Chair.  Seller says it’s in good condition with no tears.

$30 in St. Louis Hills.  Here’s the link: Great Vintage Black and White Chair.

High Back Dining Chairs.  There are four of them.  If you have $300 to spend on vintage 1970s style dining chairs, you could do much worse.

$300 in Illinois (?).  Here’s the link: 1970′s White High Back Dining Chairs.

Your St. Louis Craigslist happenings:

End tables.  I would be willing to bet these are Drexel tables with that caning on the bottom shelves.  Why?  Because I own a set of these as well, which I bought for roughly twice this price.  Oh well.  I love them and use them as bedside tables.  They are a little on the big side for that, but it’s just plenty of room for books.  Anyway, you can use them as accent tables or end tables.  Very nice quality.

$40 in South St. Louis County.  Here’s the link: 1960′s end tables (vintage).

Vintage 50s couch.  Recently reupholstered in a green/beige pattern.  Nice- I like the buttons and tapered legs.  You could really make this work.

$120 in the Tower Grove neighborhood.  Here’s the link: 50′s style couch.

Two matching white end tables with an interesting inset design- see the post.

$25 in Oakville.  Here’s the link: 2 End Tables.

Round retro table.  In pretty bad shape, but nothing some wood filler and paint couldn’t fix.  Again, just don’t paint the brass.  Clean it up and paint the wood veneer.

$15 in St Louis City.  Here’s the link: Round Retro Wood Table.

Red leather club chair, which I am liking!  The lines are nice.  I cannot tell at all whether this is new or old, though.  Probably newer than I would like it to be.  But it’s not monstrously sized like a contemporary chair would be, and it would still look pretty great in a room with mid-century decor.

$25 in South City St. Louis.  Here’s the link: Armchair.
