Shopping for furniture can be both daunting and draining. Turn to the local yellow pages and you will find three full pages of options. Many hours (and tanks of gas) can be wasted trekking from one store to another in hopes of finding the perfect sofa, armoire, end table, headboard, barstool or whatever the piece of furniture you're sure you need to complete a room. To assist in the search, we have collected the listings below, a compendium created after many web searches, dozens of phone calls to local retailers and interior designers and innumerable hours in stores just touching and examining.
Irrespective of taste or style, the experts unanimously advise you to buy quality. Don't skimp on fabric, craftsmanship or material when choosing those key pieces. But it is your taste, style and personal eccentricity that will determine which piece will be perfect, which store is most likely to carry it. So, we have broken down the 55 stores listed into categories: traditional, antique, contemporary and transitional. We wish you good shopping and good luck.
Traditional
