New Karl Mullen Works Have Arrived at Weisshouse









A few months ago, we featured artist, Karl Mullen. We just received a new collection of framed works on paper. Irish born artist and musician Karl Mullen is known for developing his very own unique approach to making art and materials to create his works. Often on paper or newsprint and pages from books, he primarily uses his hands to paint, Mullen uses walnut oil, raw powder pigment and a wax medium to create distinctive, colorful compositions with memorable figures. Find Karl Mullen's work at Weisshouse at our showroom or on our website.

One Very Cool Vintage Table, Many Ways







We just received this chrome and glass vintage table and we couldn't be more excited about it. The table base is composed of two pieces which means there are multiple ways to configure the table as seen in the photos above. The round glass top compliments the table well making it appear sculptural. Shop this and all of our unique vintage finds at our showroom or at www.weisshouse.com.

Less Space, Same Amount of Style: Pittsburgh Quarterly Interviews Stacy Weiss






Pittsburgh Quarterly magazine featured our very own Stacy Weiss in their summer 2013 issue. "Lofty Inspirations" is shown above and begins on page 32. The article details many of Stacy's prized possessions that include items like iconic furniture: a 15-year-old Charles sofa (B & B Italia) and Stacy's "curated" collection of art. The article stated that Stacy, who grew up in an art-infused home, purchased her first painting at the age of 6. While most of us weren't even able to tie our shoes yet, Stacy was beginning to develop an eye for collecting. Today, Weisshouse represents Stacy's 30 year career in the interior design/home furnishings business. Check out the summer 2013 issue on news stands now.

Late Spring Furniture Arrivals at Weisshouse

This painted wicker side table's construction is completely intact. The top and sides are stable. We assume this piece is  probably from the turn-of-the-century. The paint has a beautiful aged patina.

Originally made by American of Martinsville in the 1970s, this handsome piece lived its life as a wood chest until it was painted with high gloss auto paint at a body shop. The chest is now totally updated with a really glamorous personality! We just love the back stories and rich histories of vintage furniture.

Danish Modern design:
This Vintage Hans Wegner-inspired folding chair (wood and rattan painted wood and cane) would be great indoors or out (covered)!

We think this antique farmer's stool will add charm and rustic sophistication to any interior.

Forgive us for not writing for a few weeks. We have been incredibly busy stocking our showroom with new arrivals and new vintage items! We are so excited to share all of them with you and we will be blogging up a storm for the next few days. First, we wanted to share a few of our most unique vintage furniture finds. We hope you like them and stay tuned for a lot more...
