Mondern 50 ~ Photography then Furniture

I was so taken aback by the composition and color of these photographs on Modern 50/Factory 20 I hardly noticed that the spectacular vintage pieces were actually for sale. I spent the good part of an hour on their site simply staring at the photographs. Here are my favorites ...but the vintage objects shots are just as mesmerizing.

. . .and I would kind of die for the Paul McCobb black dining room table & chairs second down from the top. Chairs are not for sale though ...and the table's a bit more than I wanted to spend. I may just be able to find a comparable set and diy it myself :)

If anybody could diy that table, it would be you.
Who ever took these photos has a really good eye, they're perfect.

These photographs of the pieces are gorgeous! They really look as though they're part of a coffee table book!

The last two are particularly beautiful. Antique silver is always so gorgeous.
