Here an unassuming vertical chest / jewelry cabinet that has a great deal of quality and detailing packed into a very small foot print. Designer Jaime Tresserra of the Tresserra Collection puts focus on the craftsmanship rather than the bottom line that usually results in constraints and the sacrifice of beauty. I am extremely impressed with this collection and the obvious passion that goes into each piece.

Definitely one of the iconic pieces from the Mid-Century design era, the visual on the Eames storage unit says it all. Even for non-fans of modern design, there is still a recognizable air to the furniture. The first take is the play on colors and how their culmination creates a superb visual appeal. The storage types are pieced together in a patchwork manner, but in truth reveal the genius behind Charles and Ray Eames' design from 1950. This piece is offered by the MOMA store for $3,400 and can be purchased here.
