  • I was so excited to check out this store. Living in a vintage building and flush with cash, I felt it was the best prospect for furnishing my apartment. However after spending a few minutes in the store I felt cold, alienated and stupid, For starters I was never greeted, my presence acknowledged, or even asked how my day was. The store was empty upon my arrival, and it was not until I dared to touch an item that my presence was acknowledged....albeit with a condescending and rude outburst by the stores owner. I thought the furniture was vintage and original....apparently they refinish and refurbish furniture and pass it off as found vintage. I was told by the owner that most of e furniture was recently shellacked....and was not in display condition. I also had the unfortunate experience of asking the staff about several pieces I was interested in. Between eye rolls and deep sighs I was told of the inaccuracies in my question, yet never told if I could purchase the items or not. After being deemed too dumb to engage in a conversation by the woman minding the store I was handed over to the stores owner with a sigh, an eye roll, and a rather condescending "do you want to handle this?". The stores owner than continued to alienate and insult me, making me feel dumb and rather small. It seems as though the storefront is a showroom for their online sales, as most items are not for sale...and anything that is worthwhile is plastered with "do not touch" signage. Very unhospitable for a furniture store, as I usually like to sit in something before I purchase it. I'm not going to even go into the prices, which seem as alienated from reality as the stores owner or his assistant; two ageing hipsters locked in a battle for who could be snootier or more pretentious. Aside from the nasty staff, the lack of hospitality and the god-awfull smell inside the store I would say the store was acceptable. I'm sure this store will survive, as most online customers probably don't know that they are getting refurbished furniture stored in a putrid cat-urine smelling environment and sold by condescending belittling better-than-thou hipsters. ......avoid this store, check out the wonderful vintage stores elsewhere in town.
