A beautiful example of American craftsmanship from the 1960s, it’s equally suited for use in a living room, office, or modern kitchen. Fun Historical Fact: During the 1960s, modular and customizable furniture became a symbol of modern living—reflecting a cultural shift toward flexibility, functionality, and open-concept interiors
