Perfect Pairs: Our Favorite Mid Century & Ciseal Combinations
Here at Ciseal, we are constantly inspired by Mid Century design. Each product we design and make has a Midcentury bent to it because we’re huge fans of the clean lines, natural materials, and useful elegance of so many of the classic Midcentury designs. The best part is when we hear from customers that they’re going to pair one of our products with one of their cherished mid century pieces. Here are some combos our customers have created that perfectly pair Ciseal products with classic Mid Mod pieces.
