Just in case you're interested, Moreddi is an importer mark (as opposed to a manufacturing brand). Founded by Maury and Ed Frank, (get it - Moreddi), this was the stamp for their importer company that supplied their Frank Bros stores in exotic Long Beach, CA.
Still cool Danish furniture, and they were supposedly among the earliest importers. Although they carried pieces that were kind of the little siblings to the more famous works from the big name designers, these kinds of brands brought a lot of great modern pieces to a broader audience at a lesser price, often with designs that had a nice style in their own right.
We happened to look into the name one time after getting some dining chairs with the Moreddi mark.

Cool vintage 3 foot long clock with fish on it. It even requires a key to wind it.

A storage locker brought in a few fun finds today, first a Witco conquistador wall hanging with the tag on the back that identifies it as Octiw which is Witco spelled backwards Batman, and this ceramic ashtray of a car with fins that says something like Linia on the front of it, ever hear of the company?
