But in a way, they look identical, professional, and in symmetry but they tend to be boring after some time as they all are exactly the same.

On the other hand, the handicraft furniture made by hand is unique in the slight variation of the designs due to the lack of absolute precision of the human hand, and every item is unique in the way if also they look exactly the same from distance.
