These handsome pieces will never go out of style.
Midcentury modern furnishings will never really go out of style. With its masculine charm, the decor has a design signature of clean lines and geometric shapes mixed with rich colors and earthy textures. They are the kind of pieces that look at home in a single guy's bachelor pad. But the lasting appeal of this style means that they also mix well with other items—the more "eclectic pieces" of your significant other, for example. We've pulled together ten of our favorite midcentury pieces, from true vintage finds and retro-inspired designs to truly iconic investment pieces. These are the ones that will never let you down.
