How does one identify the type of wood a piece of furniture is made out of?
I have an interest in vintage (Eames era, Danish, Mid-century) furniture. Are there any “tricks” of the trade to help me recognize the type of wood (Walnut, Teak, Elm…)?
yes first you need to look at bare wood of each type. touch it smell it scratch it see how much it weighs . then look on the underside of the furniture the unfinished side and compare. it takes time to learn this but its not that hard

Eames Lounge Chair Wood $76.47 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles The Eames Lounge Chair Wood is a chair designed by husband and wife team Charles and Ray Eames. The chair was designed using technology for molding plywood that the Eames developed before and during The Second World War. Before American involvement in the war, Charles and his friend, architect Eero Saarinen, entered a line of furniture into the Museum of Modern Arts Organic Furniture Competition in 1940, exploring the natural evolution of furniture in response to the rapidly changing world. Charles and Eero won the competition. However, production of the initially designed chairs was postponed due to production difficulties, and then by the United States entry into WWII. This interruption proved fortuitous to Charles. He began making molded plywood splints for the U.S. Air Force. The splints were modelled after his own leg and allowed him to hone the technique of molding the plywood into complex curves. The LCW was a result of this experience.

Controlbrand DC594VYB3314 Charles Chair Plush Fabric $409.5 It may not be the most universally recognised example of either Charles Eames nor Eero Saarinen s canon however their 1940 Conversation Chair is without doubt one of the more important examples of 20th century furniture design. Designed for the New York Museum of Modern Art s Organic Design in Home Furnishings competition the Conversation Chair was a concept piece and Eames and Saarinen s first attempt at moulding synthetics. At that time however the technology lagged somewhat behind the designers imagination and it was to be almost a decade before either Charles Eames or Eero Saarinen could transform the lessons learnt into commercial products. Dimensions: 33.5 H x 25.5 x W x 28.75 D. |
