Mad About Furniture: Part 2

In our opinion, the best part of the acclaimed television show, Mad Men is the fabulous set full of amazing vintage furniture. We are simply obsessed with vintage furniture at Weisshouse. We just received an impeccable pair of Stow and Davis Furniture Company chairs in Naugahyde and teak.

"Stow and Davis manufactured executive wood office furniture. Many of their products have become icons of the 1950s,1960s and 1970s office landscape. Look closely at the Mad Men sets and you’ll see desks and seating that could be from Stow and Davis Company".

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.
