Luther website states that "his pieces of furniture for the Nordiska Kompanient were characterized by craftsmanship of high quality and advanced combinations of material. The furniture was manufactured for a financially strong clientele with modern demands."  I'd mix it in a room with abstract art, 18th-century French chairs, and 1970's bedside tables.  What would you do with it?  </div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZVL_DpSWiI0czzHlvuQDwq2pYG_LLSvf3Od3E4X6nJFqrmicVnP0W5auNmpSYfqQ_eBp9x6xpSnuCID4ZXuLlhBU-iQR3EIwD8OiqJ9IZWo66YtVP4NP80UnGn1dWxqDcYuoqiFF9gSac/s1600/hm+luther+orange+bed+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" nx="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZVL_DpSWiI0czzHlvuQDwq2pYG_LLSvf3Od3E4X6nJFqrmicVnP0W5auNmpSYfqQ_eBp9x6xpSnuCID4ZXuLlhBU-iQR3EIwD8OiqJ9IZWo66YtVP4NP80UnGn1dWxqDcYuoqiFF9gSac/s400/hm+luther+orange+bed+2.jpg" width="267" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVuLB8-D_u0Yf4TAtnvLFvrYauJOegWyqAOJLxcIPNJAoBb_x-bWQkLmB1b0Ot0DjTywZ1Tbdd5cJyxj80FqNfn9kr_SqqTJMDqC6igKsT0S61VTNkoLtQI1NXGqZyXVfr9vj8kPXcfizb/s1600/hm+luther+orange+bed+5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="257" nx="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVuLB8-D_u0Yf4TAtnvLFvrYauJOegWyqAOJLxcIPNJAoBb_x-bWQkLmB1b0Ot0DjTywZ1Tbdd5cJyxj80FqNfn9kr_SqqTJMDqC6igKsT0S61VTNkoLtQI1NXGqZyXVfr9vj8kPXcfizb/s400/hm+luther+orange+bed+5.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfZmueuHmFJkuiwPeSz9LaLwjVbzwOZEWBgtmkMNx3os98S45IDsBV4BCI3hBYyzC7gTWXY4r3nii0Opec9ieWsvA_sSzRrbjpoHIIm8lDaipdYJqETWyqWgT6Ta5V7YD-mJK2jy2KV02s/s1600/hm+luther+orange+bed+4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" nx="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfZmueuHmFJkuiwPeSz9LaLwjVbzwOZEWBgtmkMNx3os98S45IDsBV4BCI3hBYyzC7gTWXY4r3nii0Opec9ieWsvA_sSzRrbjpoHIIm8lDaipdYJqETWyqWgT6Ta5V7YD-mJK2jy2KV02s/s400/hm+luther+orange+bed+4.jpg" width="330" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirkRPTB_rNhIyK2Pb4n493sJOB56RU-YzEF9G6H_-Pcwm039KjI6z-1_79G_6JS4HiarHJtsygldrhyHT4CREucQtEaQBWpGJoHYb_ejf-ZlwXwkTkjGSoOkwwvd6Qo0ddVLIre2Tg4owm/s1600/hm+luther+orange+bed+6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="262" nx="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirkRPTB_rNhIyK2Pb4n493sJOB56RU-YzEF9G6H_-Pcwm039KjI6z-1_79G_6JS4HiarHJtsygldrhyHT4CREucQtEaQBWpGJoHYb_ejf-ZlwXwkTkjGSoOkwwvd6Qo0ddVLIre2Tg4owm/s400/hm+luther+orange+bed+6.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvFzBnA7_kTX40dsjY-mVBqz52eN-JIdUM1EQD7zPxHWzdujtF5vc3Ly9m9YRjMTG6HhhUDBPFp2T-mvDY1rlyoWpz1YJcDSdMNcPv0zCwdVt-WyfgCq11rVT80kVEWOKiohPDbgWJCQvU/s1600/hm+luther+orange+bed+3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" nx="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvFzBnA7_kTX40dsjY-mVBqz52eN-JIdUM1EQD7zPxHWzdujtF5vc3Ly9m9YRjMTG6HhhUDBPFp2T-mvDY1rlyoWpz1YJcDSdMNcPv0zCwdVt-WyfgCq11rVT80kVEWOKiohPDbgWJCQvU/s400/hm+luther+orange+bed+3.jpg" width="155" /></a></div><div align="left"></div>
