專家說明

Manufactured by the Stockholm-based Nordiska Kompaniet, the present model was designed by Nordquist specifically for Bonniers, the Manhattan 5-storey furnishing department store. The high-end retailer was part of Bonniers media group, the renowned family-run Swedish publishing house. Located on Madison Avenue, the flagship store closed in 1974 due to the expansion of competitors such as Bloomingdales, after being a ‘trend‐setting establishment for more than two decades’ (New York Times, 28 September 1974).
