Yes, it was, but it was at a time when I worked as a designer. Our studio
could order just about anything from any source and I took great advantage
of it. Employees were able to buy at company invoice price. I bought
George Jensen sterling flatware, Wedgewood china, Christofle and Lalique
crystal, and a lot of other higher end things. Sure as hell couldn't
afford it today. :-)
