How old is Maitland-Smith furniture?

1 Answer
How old is Maitland-Smith furniture?
Maitland-Smith Furniture is more than 40 years old. Paul Maitland-Smith established the company in Hong Kong in 1979 after getting his start in London in the 1950s as an antique dealer who also sold reproduction furniture, something that would become a Maitland-Smith specialty. The manufacturer's early reproductions of 17th- and 18th-century furniture included Chippendale dining chairs, and soon afterward, Maitland-Smith expanded into a range of decorative designs that often exude a whimsical spirit, whether a coffee table shaped like a stack of books or a pair of decorative obelisks.
