Good evening all,
I'm Vickie and my passion is Mid Century design and furnishings (especially Danish Modern). With this knowledge, my loving mother chose this piece for me as a Christmas gift:

I love the piece but my questions are:

Does anyone know what this was used for?
How can I incorporate it into my "decor"?
How can I stay true to the use it was designed for?

Any advice and/or opinions are appreciated.

Thanks,
Vickie
