Furniture: MUJI Manufactured by Thonet

On a recent trip to New York, I admired the MUJI Manufactured by Thonet Furniture line, which combines Old World elegance with sleek minimalist Japanese design. The simplified bentwood and tubular steel furniture is manufactured at Thonet’s headquarters in Germany, keeping to the company’s high production standards. Contact MUJI’s Chelsea or Times Square New York Stores (where they are on view) to purchase.
