Kaufman co. 
 
The Kaufman story begins with the Imperial Steel and Wire Company of Collingwood, a large manufacturer of nails and fasteners
 
 Under the control of A.R. Kaufman, this company made pre-fab plywood furniture, shipped to Britain to help replace furniture lost during the German bombing.  When this contract was completed in 1948, the company became Kaufman Furniture,
 
Originally, birch wood was the material of choice, but this was succeeded by the better-selling walnut. 
This is an authentically sample of  well made furniture.
