Style note — many household products designed in the Mid-Century Modern style were manufactured using new and unexpected materials – homewares in chrome, nickel, aluminium and plastic as well as plywood for furniture. They allowed creating new shapes on an industrial scale and were easy to use.
Wine Tip — Barolo, Bordeaux, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Malbec, Chianti, Rhône wines and Ports — all these wines usually can benefit from decanting, because they have pretty heavy bodies.
