Modern furniture, some fantastical, some too delicate to look at! On a whim walking by this store…read moremyself and a couple of friends stopped in for a peek and fell in love with some of their beautiful unique furnishings. Well made items on the higher end in price and finishing, these pieces will last. Unfortunately while downstairs an over the dining room table light that was basically a lit circle with a long skinny lit rod going through it was about to slip off and luckily my gf was there to help try to put it back but had a hell of a time balancing the darn thing! A very rude salesman came running over and raised his voice at her saying "why would you touch that?!" My poor gf tried in disbelief to explain what was happening but the man was so rude he didn't even apologize! We left in disbelief that an employee would react so unprofessionally! I believe that employees are just as important as the brand or company they represent and this was in no way reflective of the beautiful furnishings inside the store. This is why I'm giving them one star. An apology would have been nice.

Every time I walk by I fantasize that I live in this store, and many times I have heard "Sir! ....sir!.... SIR! stop drooling on the glass I just cleaned it!" this is a little piece of design heaven plopped right in the middle of Gastown. They carry everything you could possibly want from such design gods as: * Niels Bendtsen * Marcel Breuer * Campana brothers * Achille Castiglioni * Antonio Citterio * Charles & Ray Eames * Eileen Gray * Arne Jacobsen * Poul Kjaerholm * Piero Lissoni * Jean-Marie Massaud * Ingo Maurer * Jasper Morrison * Marc Newson * Isamu Noguchi * Eero Saarinen * Philippe Starck * Patricia Urquiola * Ole Wanscher * Hans Wegner phewf.. the list is long. A little hidden gem about this establishment is in the summer they feature their summer collection in an outdoor setting located on the roof. Just take the elevator up to the roof and you will discover a little oasis filled with molded plastic loungers, sun shades, and little gnome stools. Enjoy!

At first, I was ecstatic, I liked so much of what I was looking and running my hands over. The pieces: stunning. The styles? Well let's just say that I contemplated blowing my perfect credit score over them. I was there for 5-10 minutes. Two people sat at the desk in the back. Neither glanced my way, not even a head nod. I guess I don't look like the sectional buying type, or perhaps it was because I was with a friend and we were chatting... I would have continued to hang around to ask a question or two, but once I realized that the cigarette smoke was circulating because of the two of them, a wave of disgust engulfed me. Outside of the fact that there's a bylaw that prohibits smoking inside businesses in Vancouver, the idea that my furniture would reek when I got it home disgusted me enough to shudder and leave.

Modern living room furniture, from luxuriously upholstered couches and chaise lounges, uniquely built desks, tables and chairs, to new-shag carpets (don't be scared of shag, it can look pretty interesting and this newer version is far less um, dirty looking than its 70's cousin...), Bombast pieces have a vibe all their own. Lighting options include ornately carved floor lamps and Dutch wall light fixtures. I am especially interested in a simply designed bed frame with attached bedside table and optional upholstered back splash on the headboard. I find the pieces here to be very zen in nature with a spark of modern chic. Prices to match!

Twelfth Street in New West is not usually on my radar for walking and window shopping, but it's got…read moresome pretty cool stuff if you care to look. Such as a bright orange Eames reproduction chair - hey, what is this place? It's the Banana Lab, a hidden treasure trove of mid-century modern furniture and little design-y things. Hidden in plain sight, really, as it's just across the street from a Yelper fave, Big Star Sandwich. Frankly, I'm heartened there's now another MCM-focused vintage store in town! Packed into the Lab's small space is a number of nifty teak sideboards, record cabinets, chairs and other Danish modern furnishings and housewares for my soon-to-be groovier living room. Prices compare favourably to the *other* MCM store, and the proprietors here seem really nice and friendly and enthusiastic about their wares.

There's plenty of mid century furniture to choose from and upon inspection of some of their refinished items, they do an incredible job. Like with vintage and hard wood furnitures, some of the pieces are not cheap but they're unique and will last a long time. The other plus to this store is their kitschy (and sometimes original) art pieces and tchotchkes. I prefer this place to the shop in the Quay so I'll most likely come back as a few items tweaked my fancy (especially the sunburst table) and I'll be sure to let people know about this place.

Having never ordered custom furniture before, I had no idea about the price, but when comparing with other companies, none of the items seemed overpriced. The items were meticulously wrapped for transportation and arrived on time. The quality of the furniture is evident. Blair even followed up to make sure everything was good. Overall, a great experience.

Salman specializes in antiques from the turn of the century up to the 40s, especially Indian antiques. And oh my god are they gorgeous. I had no idea the unique niche created by Europeans keeping up with styles like Art Deco, Art Nouveau, etc. in the subcontinent. Because these were styles from the west made by eastern craftspeople, they have the same overall aesthetic (for Art Deco - the flowing lines, motifs, materials like ebony and teak) with a twist (those motifs can be different, like lotus bursts rather than sunbursts, or stair step motifs, as well as higher quality woods because of the unique, humid conditions). My first experience with Verandah - my husband and I passed the store front after closing and spotted two fabulous teak, Art Deco chairs. We came back the very next day to buy them. They are original teak (steamed into place), with woven seat and backing re-done in rattan. I am almost embarrassed to say what we paid. These pieces of furniture are not cheap. The original price was $1600 CAD for the pair, but we were able to bring it way down, and Salman threw in a pair of pillows to go with them. Salman was even okay waiting 5 days for us to pick them up. I think Salman really valued our appreciation of the chairs. Let me just say that, while these pieces are very expensive, I know that I will have a lasting relationship with this shop. Salman has great connections with craftspeople who can do any maintenance necessary. And, great connections with folks all over the world who source these kinds of gorgeous antiques.
