Vintage designers at MIDMOD

A designer's name is one of the first things collectors and architects ask about. It helps to judge a piece, tell an original from a later copy and understand where its form came from. That is why we name the designer of a MIDMOD piece whenever the attribution is confirmed.

Designer pages bring together verified facts: dates, training, the factories they worked for and their key models. Next to each profile you will find the pieces available now and those that have already found a new home.

Looking for pieces by factory? See the manufacturers archive. Pieces grouped by theme are in our collections, and our checks are described on the authenticity guarantee page.
