While we make every effort to restore our furniture to its original state, most pieces date from the 1950s to the late 1970s.

Light traces of restoration may remain visible, consistent with authentic vintage furniture\u003ci\u003e.\u003c\/i\u003e In some cases, minor adjustments may also have been made during the restoration process to ensure the piece remains functional and usable.
