A rare set of G-117 iron-frame stacking stools from Arthur Umanoff's 1964 Granada collection for BOYUER SCOTT. Each individual stool stands 14 ½" tall; together they stack to a combined height of 33 ½".

Often misattributed to Salterini owing to its vague similarities to that firm's Tempestini-designed Scherzo and Ribbon collections from the early '50s and a paucity of documentation on contemporaneous BOYEUR SCOTT production, questions about the parentage of Granada were only recently put to rest—thanks to the in-depth research of Jonathan Goldberg (http://www.arthurumanoff.com/2012/07/the-grenada-collection-by-boyuer-scott.html). Goldberg reports that details of Shaver Howard's late '60s purchase of BOYEUR SCOTT account for  the sketchy paper trail that surrounds the production of Granada. While the buy-up made it a wholly-owned subsidiary, in the short term BOYUER SCOTT continued to operate under its own imprint, maintaining its own manufacturing. It was only over the next couple of years that BOYUER SCOTT was fully subsumed and the manufacturing of Granada moved to Shaver Howard.

ARTHUR UMANOFF graduated from Brooklyn's Pratt Institute in the early '50s and soon after produced his first designs for Post Modern Ltd., a Long Island concern where he was a founding partner along with fellow designer Tony Paul. He was involved there in all phases of the design process—from concept to prototyping and use-testing (in his own home), through to merchandising and marketing. Both Umanoff's and Paul's early designs for Post Modern, Ltd. were distributed by the Elton Co. of New York City.

The wrought-iron and slat furniture that most people recognize as Umannoff's work—chairs, tables, bars, and bar carts—was produced by Shaver Howard, a company he designed for from 1954 well into the '70s. A firm called Storkline produced some of his Shaver Howard pieces on a reduced scale as children’s furniture in 1961, dubbing the collection Little Shavers. The inclusion of a miniaturized rattan bar raised eyebrows in the press, but Umanoff deflected criticism by referring to it as a "milk bar."

Work for Madison Furniture Industries of Canton, Mississippi, began in 1963. Umanoff's designs for the Howard Miller Clock Co. of Zeeland, Michigan, first appear in 1964. During the '70s his designs are produced by an increasing number of companies including Directional, Thonet, Dillingham Furniture, Rouse/Jackson, and David Morgan. In addition to Tony Paul, Umanoff maintained a lifelong friendship with designer Ben Seibel.

Beautiful & Great Price!
Color: Gold-b, Color: Gold-b
I was looking at a $60 Williams & Sonoma “honeycomb collection” marble paper towel holder with gold bee accents, but decided to save a bunch of money and go with this one. Glad I did! It’s awesome!!! Easy to put together with the wrench that’s included, it’s packed well - great product for the price and they sent a free gift with it too. Received 3 super soft dish cloths along with the paper town holder. Unexpected surprise and happy with them too!! Just placed an oder for another one for the other bathroom sink. This will not be in a high use area so I’m not worried about the base getting beat up. I feel like it’s just the right weight. Not as heavy as real marble, but heavy enough to hold the towels securely. The gold is a pretty shade.

Heavy marble base and solid rod holder.
Color: White-aa, Color: White-aa
After researching the many different marble base towel holders, which is what I wanted to match my marble decor, I finally settled on this which arrived today, packed very nicely in a Styrofoam tight box to protect the marble and came with it as you can see a gift of some very soft Microfiber dish cloths, which work very well at removing smudge marks on kitchen appliances. It took me 30 seconds to join the base to the rod. It came with a little tool to tighten the base however it really wasn’t necessary. I then covered the hole under the base with a piece of One-sided circular sticky, felt, which covered the hole very nicely. I have tried it, and it does do as it says, and the marble base is heavy enough where it holds the roll of paper towels so that with a couple of tugs, I can get one of the perforated sections out. Does take more than one tug as some people showed but two tugs or three light ones really doesn’t matter it gets the job done and in a far lower price than any of the others, in fact, some of the recommended others were 2 1/2 times more expensive and the reviews were not good at all. It pays to take the time to go through people’s reviews like mine and that’s why I believe in completing the reviews whenever I can time permitting. I’m giving this a five star and I think that you will too. I was lucky based on some of the other marble bases that were shown for this product that I got a significant amount of gray marbling matter because some of them had very little it’s just the way the marble runs and you take your chance, but I was lucky.

Nice touch!
Color: Gold-b, Color: Gold-b
Handles large paper towel rolls. The gold color on the top which is mainly what you see when you have paper towels on it, coordinates nicely with the various shades of gold in my kitchen. The 4" pulls brushed gold, the Delta pull down facet as well as the Euro (Lamps plus) aged brass mini pendant. I find it easy to tear off paper towels even without the small tear bar found on different holders. Was a few $ more but it matches perfectly. Well worth it.
