Blenko reissue

If you've been wanting a pair of Blenko lamps but have found them difficult to locate, Rejuvenation might have a solution for you.

Back in 2012, they formed a partnership with famous glass manufacturer Blenko to reissue several of their lamp styles from the 1950s. They produce five table lights: Cylinder, Round, Flare, Wave and Carafe, which are offered in several color options. Decorative finials use Blenko's signature decanter stopper styles. Drum shades are available in natural burlap, black linen or ivory linen.

I got an email this morning from Nicole at Rejuvenation telling me that she posted a link to Mid2Mod on their Facebook page.  Thanks for taking notice, Nicole...and for the good wishes on the success of my blog.

Rejuvenation: junk store hits the big time

Rejuvenation House Parts was founded in 1977, but the story really began in 1975, when Jim Kelly purchased a condemned Portland storefront for $1000. Having trouble finding materials to restore the building, Jim decided to create a business serving the needs of old-home renovators. He quickly realized that demand exceeded supply, so he hired his first employee to start making basic reproductions. Today Rejuvenation, Inc. offers a full line of period reproduction lighting and hardware, including a mid-century modern collection.

On my to-do list is putting their very reasonably priced chrome pulls and backplates on the cabinets in my workshop, and several of their light fixtures are on my wish list. I consider this site a must-see for anyone restoring a MCM home.
