I would buy that book in a New York minute! I am a long-time admirer or Dickinson and I enjoyed this post so much. I walked by a favorite store the other day, saw the African chair in the window and just about passed out. I'm so glad you are thrilled with the collection; it's the final boost that has me saving my pennies for a piece of it.

Hi Karena-

Thank you for your observation.
John Dickinson was very serious about his designs--but as you noted he was light-hearted in life. Had a great sense of humor, always.
I love the Sutherland collection.
Designers will adore it...they've been waiting for a fresh infusion of design.

So talented and obviously a light hearted gent! I love his designs, the hoof x table and the rope tied table are my favorites.

All the Best!

HI John-

I am now once more thinking about the book--though you know that several publishers have demurred.
You are right-John Dickinson is know to insiders, though he did get a recent major boost on MILLION DOLLAR DECORATORS, the tv show, in which Jeffrey Marks acquired a Dickinson table. My blog traffic was off the charts after that.

Christian, Hi--The prices are terrace, especially to the trade. I think Sutherland has priced them well. I hope you'll get one.

Sybaritic, Hello--Yes, John Dickinson is the greatest. He was such a wonderful man--witty, insightful, so rich in knowledge, and hilarious.
The metal draped tables--they are going to be reproduced later this year. I will be writing about them. Keep posted...
CHEERS, DIANE

Dickinson is fantastic... the plaster tables are awesome and I've always been a fan of the faux draped galvanized steel tables as well.

i ADORE this collection and am so happy they've been re-released. perhaps mere mortals can afford them now (though i haven't checked out the pricing yet, so maybe it's still 40k for an endtable!)

I like his bone motif furniture, too. I hope you will try again to have the book published; his work is so great and relatively unknown by the current generation of book buyers.
