Comfortable? Good - because I have a boat-load to share with you and there's no time for a long intro. Let's begin:
Vanguard merk sofa for $225 and matching loveseat for $145. Both are in excellent condition. Very cool marble (I think) top oval coffee table (measures 51" across and 24 1/2 wide) for $95 and matching 3' round side table also for $95. The marble (again, I think it's marble -
it's some kind of stone) is GORGEOUS!
very good condition French inspired side chair for $175
Ashley Furniture leather sofa and oversize ottoman - some minor wear but
otherwise in good condition - priced $375 for both pieces
unusual mirrored storage cabinet. Missing a piece of mirror on the inside top and along the front right side (last photo). Also some chips and small cracks in the mirror. If I'm completely honest (which I always try to be) it's got a really funky smell. I'm assuming the two interior "wells"
are to hold liquor. It's a very interesting piece! Priced $65
two lovely plaid side chairs - both of them need a few spots cleaned - priced $95 each
absolutely GORGEOUS Ethan Allen two piece, lighted china cabinet for $245. Matching dining table (measures 42" x 64") with two leaves (each 18" wide), six chairs (two with arms) and table pads for $325. Everything's in excellent condition
sweet cabinet with protective glass top for $55
two Harden Furniture chairs for $175 for both. There's some slight general discoloration (dirt?) around the edges. Almost like something covered the main seat of the chair but it got a little grimy around the edges. Does that make sense? If these chairs were cleaned - they'd be amazing!
OH MY GOODNESS - I have two Stickley merk pieces to show you this week (from two different donors). First up is this amazing cherry wood chair. It's gorgeous and in pristine condition!
Donor told me she paid $2,000 for it new. We're selling it for $425
these are two LOVELY matching side chairs. They LOOK like they sit low to the ground - but they don't - they're very comfortable and sit perfectly normally (some optical illusion
based on the style of the chairs). Priced $195 each
nice armless side chair for $45
I love when a recliner doesn't yell RECLINER! and this one certainly doesn't! Muted
southwestern pattern in good condition and priced $125
FANTASTIC Walter E. Smithe sofa - in excellent condition - priced $295
and then this Smithe-Craft sofa is also in excellent condition and priced $155
Plunkett merk sofa - some minor spots - for $125
FABULOUS cedar-lined trunk in excellent condition for $225. Measures 51 1/2" across and 19" deep. Shoot - I forgot to measure height from floor to top (sorry!)
Lea Industries (a division of Lazboy) twin over twin bunk-bed. The last photo is of the bed slants as well as extra finials (if you un-bunked them to use as two separate twin beds you'd need the extra finials). There's some sticker residue that needs to be removed - but otherwise these are in excellent condition. There's a ladder too. Priced $265
Pottery Barn dining table (3' x 64") with one leaf (20") and six chairs (two with arms). Some nicks and scratches on the table AND chairs (gives it a distressed look). Priced $195 for the set
this never-been-used RECLINING leather sofa is unbelievably
comfortable and gorgeous! Priced $995
two piece curved leather sofa with ottoman has some wear and the lighter leather looks dirty - but if you put a little work into cleaning it up it would be FANTASTIC! Priced $295
we got a whole bunch of solid wood kid's chairs from an area church and
we're selling the chairs for $20 each. They're so, so cute!
this is a one piece Stanley merk storage cabinet. I LOVE all the drawers and shelves and doors! SO MUCH STORAGE! Oh and it's lighted! There are two hidden lights in the two opening just under the four doors at the top and another light in the opening (behind doors) just below a narrow drawer. It's in very good condition and only priced $125!
and here's Stickley piece number two. This time it's an oak framed leather loveseat. Different style than the cherry wood chair (doesn't have the open slats on the sides and back like the chair has) and there's a little more wear on the both the wood and the leather of this piece - but, oh my, it's amazing! Donor told me they paid $8,000 for it new! We're selling it for $495
Since I didn't start this post with new inventory from the Merchandise Mart it doesn't mean we didn't receive any! Ha! I keep thinking - that's it until the fall - and then another showroom manager phones with more to donate! I'll provide information on this first teak set and then will simply show photos of the furniture and then a photo of the price tag (like I've been doing). Again, everything that follows is from the showrooms of high end manufacturers at the Mart. Crazy amazing stuff!
GORGEOUS teak dining table (measures 39" x 114") with bench (7' long and 17" wide) and FOUR chairs (three upholstered in a darker green and one lighter - cool leather ties with a teak seat under the cushion). We're selling that whole set for $4,250 (this set retails for over $50,000 - yes, you read that correctly). Dark blue upholstered sofa for $1,200. Gray upholstered chaise also for $1,200 and coffee table/ottoman for $625. Classic style + quality construction = you'll be happy with it for a long time
though these last pieces are designed to be outdoors - they're truly gorgeous and
could easily be used - quite beautifully - indoors
Thanks for stopping by, dear reader! I hope to see you next week!
