I totally love this kind of furniture. The best part about it is if you go to a used furniture store the old retro stuff is the cheapest. I would not pay over $1,000 for a metal desk circa 1960! But great for Sonrisa if they can get someone to pay that much.
that’s one expensive earthquake kit

Great furniture provides great working environment. Though it would cost more, it guarantee's the employee's safety and longevity of the furniture itself.
