Gushing over Gus*Modern • Days left to Save!

If you haven’t had a chance to shop the Gus*Modern Summer Sale, now is your time to dive in. Until August 15^th, Weisshouse is taking 20% off of an array of modern pieces ranging from sectionals to accent chairs.

What is there to love about Gus? This design powerhouse gives a fresh take on mid-century design with a well rounded portfolio of clean lined sofas and unique accent pieces. While we’re die hard fans of vintage finds, we applaud Gus' ability to take the Mad Men aesthetic into the 21^st century with crisp tailoring and unexpected color combinations.

The Carmichael Sofa and Chair takes mid century sensibilities, with its slightly tapered legs and clean lines, and adds an modern flair with it's unexpected angles and striking color options. If you're feeling bold, opt for a sunny Citrine upholstery.

The Truss Chair nestles nicely into traditional and modern settings. Its natural ash base boasts an ultramodern, architectural design while recalling the Danish lounge chairs of the 60s.

Bedroom in need of an upgrade? The Gus*Modern Summer Sale also offers discounts on a handful of sleek beds. If you're struggling to settle on a headboard, the Switch Bed has a reversible headboard so you can achieve a subtle change on a whim. 

Sale ends August 15th, so stop in to browse additional styles and upholstery choices!

Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams Know Mid-century Modern

We love Mid-century Modern design at Weisshouse and we're always bringing in vintage pieces that embody that time period - pieces that coordinate beautifully with your existing furniture and aesthetic. A few furniture manufacturers are doing "new" Mid-century Modern design really well and Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams is one of those companies. We've highlighted a few of our favorite MCM pieces from MG+BW and combined them with a few of our own (inventory) vintage pieces. All MG+BW is currently on sale, so it's the perfect time to shop - 30% off upholstery/20% case goods, lighting and accessories.

We're In Love with This Vintage Marble Dining Table

It's not too often that we devote a whole post to one single item, but we're so in love with this table and we think you will be too. The table, from either the 60's or 70's is amazing with its Carrera marble top and chrome legs that appear to pierce through the top. This table could seat 6 people comfortably at 72" wide x 48" deep. It's a real statement piece that could be paired with most modern chairs. Stop by and see this beauty for yourself. While you're here, shop our Semi-Annual sale until the end of January.

The Allure of Vintage Accessories

This blog is part 2 of our earlier blog post, "The Allure of Vintage". Accessories are the best part of decorating your home. They breathe life, color and interest into your spaces. Vintage accessories and art are conversation pieces that are typically one-of-a-kind treasures that won't be found elsewhere. Below you'll find a few of our new favorites. Visit our website at www.weisshouse.com for additional details and dimensions.

A Mix of the Past and Present

We are often featuring what's hot in the world of vintage finds here on the Weisshouse blog. Vintage pieces from the Mid Century Modern era are very, very popular right now and Weisshouse is certainly a valuable resource for finding them. It's true that everything old becomes new again. In addition to genuine vintage furniture, many manufacturers are recreating the past and reinterpreting vintage looking furniture in new ways. Mixing vintage and new "vintage" styles is now easier than ever. Bold, modern fabric prints and bright lacquer finishes on throwback chairs, sofas and tables are popping up in stores and online. Vintage credenzas from the 50s and 60s look fresh with a coat of bright paint. Vintage lamps are new when rewired and outfitted with a sophisticated lampshade in linen, silk or even burlap. Stop by the Weisshouse showroom at 324 S.Highland Avenue in Shadyside or visit our website (www.weisshouse.com) for even more design ideas and inspiration. Check out the photos below for a few of our vintage and new "vintage" favorites.

Mad About Furniture

So we know the clothes are amazing, the women are beautiful and the men are dashing. But, what about the furniture? Oh...that's the best part! Well, it's the best part for people who LIVE for furniture, that is (and we do). Arguably the hottest show on television, Mad Men is in it's 5th season and has never looked finer. Mad Men IS the 1960s that those who lived in the 60s wished they were a part of and for those of us who didn't, well...we can dream.

Everyone is obsessed with the "mid-century modern" look and no, it isn't what's in Granny's basement. Mid-Century Modern is new and old. It's fresh and throw back and it is EVERYWHERE. One of our favorite furniture lines, Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams has interpreted the craze in their very own, very chic way. We have featured a few of our most coveted MG+BW looks below that have mid-century written all over them. In addition, Weisshouse has some very cool "real deal" mid-century pieces that Don Draper would absolutely have in his home or office. P.S. All Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams looks are currently 20-25% ALL special orders.
