It's Cold Here In The StL. I Bet It's Warm In Phoenix AZ. Well, Warmish. Wanna Take A Crack At Their Craigslist And See If There's Cheap Style To Be Had? Sure Ya Do! Status: Not My Turf!

Greetings from Phoenix, Arizona - Large Letter Postcard

Had a request in the comments of our last look around craigslist for a look through the Phoenix area. I think it's just a post holiday malaise but it was kinda tough to find the good stuff there too. But I think I done Phoenix good. Let's have a look.

2 Wassily Chairs - $200 (Lake Pleasant Pkwy) A pair of Wassily chairs for two bills?  I'm down with that!  One of them might need some work though.  Of course, they are probably vintage reproductions.  Love the buckskin leather too.

Vintage Eyeball Arc Chrome Eames Era Mid Century Modern Floor Lamp - $75 (22nd st/ polk phx)  Yeah, it's an ad with all the "right keywords"...and right there in the title too.  Good God.  Don't they realize that the C-list search looks through the Whole ad?  Still, not a bad price for a cool lamp!

EXTREMELY RARE VINTAGE RETRO TABLE LAMP - $25 (PEORIA)  Another cool lamp..and an even Better price!  I don't know about "extremely rare" but it's a good looking lamp and with a matching shade...that may or may not be to your taste.

magazine rack - $10 (51st Ave Bell Rd)  I love racks and stands like this.  But green?  No thanks.  Ten minutes in the driveway with a rattle can of satin black and this would look great.  You can get little white vinyl caps for the feet to finish it off and protect your floors at True Value Hardware.

9 pc OUTDOOR PATIO Furniture SET ~ 6 Chairs LARGE Table & 2 End Tables - $295 (SE Valley ~ FREE DELIVERY!)  I think this is vintage Brown Jordan patio furniture.  It's not as sought after (YET!) as some other vintage modern patio sets but it's pretty cool.  I have been seeing it pop up in antique malls lately.  Get it while it's cheap!

MCM Table Lamp Set - $70 (7th Ave Missouri)  I've got one lamp like these.  I love it to.  It's in the corner of our dining room.  A matched pair would be awesome.  No shades but you can find some at Target that'll look good.

***Accent Chair *** - $55 (Gilbert)  Egad. That was an interesting choice of fabric to cover this chair in!  The chair is cheap enough to use as a project or take with you to an upholstery class.

1960s Mid-century modern table and chairs - excellent condition - $250 (NE Mesa)  What a cool dining set.  I love how Googie those chairs are!  Very space age / Jetsons.

Two Piece China Hutch - $250 (Scottsdale)  And here's a china cabinet to go with the table and chairs above!  For $500 you've got a full on dining set.

Modern Woven Black and Brown Accent Chair with Ottoman - $85 (Mesa Dr and Brown)  This looks more Pier One than actual vintage but I like it.  I'm a sucker for iron base chairs like this.

  1. Really good finds!

    Did you do the Washington DC area CL? Though in fairness, it's usually harder to grab stuff than it is to find stuff.
