We did a little distressing around the edges, and I love that you can see a bit of the tan paint and some of the original dark wood finish. It sat, and it sat, and instead of lowering the price I decided to just give the people what they wanted and repaint it white. I decided to go with it anyway and see if it would sell.

The same logo was used for Utility Furniture as had been developed for the Utility clothing scheme: two capital letters C’s and the figure 41, for “Controlled Commodity 1941” (which soon became known as “The Two Cheeses”). New furniture was rationed and was restricted to newly-weds and people who had been bombed out, under the “Domestic Furniture (Control of Manufacture and Supply (No 2)) Order 1942” operative from 1 November 1942.
