In 1963, when I was 4 years old, my parents built a 3 bedroom, 1 1/2 bath, 1 car attached garage, split level house on a large lot in a subdivision of about 30 homes. Between 1963 and 1966 they furnished it in Danish Modern furniture. They retired and sold the house in 1990 and moved south and gave me most of the aforementioned 1960s furniture as well as artwork and kitchen odds n ends. I still have all of it, use it daily. All in good shape. All made in the USA, Sweden or Denmark. High quality craftsmanship of the 1950s and 1960s lasts a very long time while cheap junk furniture made in China in the 2000s winds up being thrown out on the curb awaiting the garbage truck after a few years of use.
