This coffee table was designed and produced in the UK in the 1950s. This model was part of the "Utility Furniture" and is marked below the CC41 logo, which stands for "Controlled Commodity, 1941". The Utility Furniture Advisory Committee was formed in 1942 to ensure that available resources were used efficiently. This line of furniture was designed to meet the needs of newlyweds settling down and bombing victims who had lost their possessions during the war.
