I was recently wandering around Old Montreal with my daughter and we stumbled into this eclectic…read morehome goods store. It was fairly new; I had never seen this store before. The lovely young woman who worked there told me that they opened within the year, and there were two other Design Zola stores (one in Brossard and one on the plateau). Looking at the stores online, this site is rather small compared to the other locations, but man, it's in prime Vieux Montreal location, right on St. Paul across from the Bonsecours Market. I really like the business philosophy and corporate values of this company (i.e., supporting fair trade, and eco-friendly product lines). Personally, I'm not so into the boho/Indian/hippie aesthetic so much (think ceramic Buddha sculptures, brass Indian candelabras, rustic wooden frames surrounding mirrors, hanging star lanterns, lots of brass things, hand-painted ceramic knobs and hooks, batik-covered poof ottomans, elephant sculptures....you get the idea. They also carried lots of home textiles and some rustic wood furniture pieces. It all reminded me of a cross between Anthropologie and Restoration Hardware. But I appreciated the high quality of the goods, and my daughter really liked it all. Prices are high, but quality is good. It appeared like the items here are well-made and would last a long time. They also have some smaller, incidental-type items, like incense and incense accessories and hand-forged metal wall hooks. They also had a few decorative cushions around $40. So there are a few items here that aren't super pricey, and one could probably find some reasonably priced gifts here for folks who are into this Indian-boho look.

I found this store on a trip to Montreal back in 2008. They have a nice selection of vintage (and…read morenew) furniture, accessories, lamps, pottery, and dining ware. If you like the 50's and 60's period, you will love this store! The furniture has been beautifully refinished with a nice teak oil finish and everything is very tastefully and carefully reconditioned and restored. All the accessories are either new or from the period. I was in the city again this year (2012) and I wanted to return to the store and once again I made another purchase! The owner is very courteous and extremely helpful and he ships all over the world by Fedex (for those items that are shippable). Also, I think the prices are very reasonable and everything is very high quality. Also, If you are not from the Montreal area, I highly recommend this store to anyone that loves mid century modern furniture and accessories. It is well worth the trip over to Rue St-Denis to check it out and it is located just a few blocks from the Sherbrooke metro station...very cool!
