Furniture Spotlight by Furniture Consignment Gallery

We are fortuanet to have a Maitland-Smith Sheraton Style Mahogany Pembroke End Table in our showroom.  It is item number 2164-2 in our inventory and is priced at $1,999. This piece takes the spotlight this week because of the beautiful veneer work. Maitland-Smith's furniture makers are more than craftsmen.  They are true artisans creating pieces that are more like artwork than furniture. This particular piece features hand-stenciled, and hand-drawn art on the surface. The stenciling blends in beautifully with the walnut, satin and ebonized mahogany veneers. In addition to the amazing veneer work, Maitland-Smith's drawer construction is not the typical dovetail and is instead similare to a tongue and groove.  The tongue and groove construction is structurally very sound. Maitland-Smith has one of the most complete selections of reproduction end tables in the marketplace, but we really like this one because it is very detailed and is subtle with its design, yet it is very striking. Other maufacturers who do a wonderful job with their end tables are Kindel Furniture and Kittinger Furniture. We have placed this beautiful piece of furniture art in the center of our showroom and customers are unable to walk past it without an "ooh" or an "ahhh". 

This week our Furniture Spotlight camera features this Apothecary Chest which is manufactured by the Kreiss Collection, a very exclusive furniture line. This piece of furniture came from a beautiful home in Concord, MA. These are the types of pieces that you want to buy on consignment because you get extraordinary value for an extraordinary piece of furniture.   

Furniture by Kreiss Collection is normally found in the residences of very wealthy home owners. But when you can find a piece like this on the furniture resale market, it becomes affordable.  This Apothecary Chest has 14 drawers, and is leather wrapped with a beautiful gold inlay. It is item 1918-29. The drawers are all finished inside and out, on the bottom and even in the interior. This exclusive furniture is very upscale pre-owned furniture.

The Lionhead hardware alone would cost a great deal of money. This can be put in your bedroom, hallway, or dining room. A lamp or two will accent this beautifully. It is a standalone piece that will bring great decor to your home. This piece, if purchased new, would be priced at around Six thousand dollars. At Furniture Consignment Gallery, this is priced today for only $1,330.00.
