His work is second to none, he is extremely creative and knowledgeable in his craft. He has put together some very memorable products for me and others I've recommended to him.

I don't think I've ever made such a quick design choice. They stand by their product and service too. When the frame came in with a flaw, Carlos personally sourced a replacement out of state, drove to get it, reframed the item and brought it to our home that evening before a deadline we had. It was framed beautifully as well. BTW, the correct address is 141 Larchmont Ave, near Boston Post Road.

My wife had purchased a few inexpensive Oriental plant stands and they were on their last legs. I…read morestarted looking for quality replacements on the Internet because I do not drive and it is difficult for me to get around. I found Oriental Furnishings and became intrigued. Their selection was amazing. However, most importantly was their reviews. Every one I read was favorable or better. (Yes they can be better than just 5 stars) I decided on 2 rosewood plant stands and a rosewood coffee table but I wasn't sure if the colors matched. So I called their phone number and spoke to Bill. (who I later discovered that he was an owner) He couldn't have been nicer. He listened to my needs and put me on hold to check if the colors matched and if they were still in stock. Within minutes he returned with "yes" to both questions. I had asked if it was possible to have the items delivered into my home since I am 69 years old and disabled. He said he would arrange it but it might take 2 weeks. I said fine and I was very satisfied. He called me the following week and said they could be delivered in 2 days, a Friday. That was fine with me. At approximately 11:00 am an SUV drove up to my home. It was my furniture. The gentleman knocked on my door and asked if I was expecting a delivery. I said yes and he started to bring them. I told him that Bill, who I spoke to on the phone, was a really nice guy and extremely helpful. He then introduced himself as Bill. He told me his driver didn't show up today so he drove from Connecticut to Long Island to deliver my furniture. Without me asking, he unpacked and checked everything to make sure they were ok. He even removed the packing material. I have to say, they were beautiful. The colors were perfect and I couldn't be happier. In this day and age it is very rare that you find someone that is so considerate and caring of others. My entire dealings with Oriental Furnishings was fantastic and I highly recommend that you look there for you Oriental furniture and decorating needs. You will not be sorry. If you remember, in the beginning of my review, I said a company could be better than 5 stars. Now you understand why. Bill was absolutely fantastic to work with and when it's times to purchase more furnishings, I will only use Oriental Furnishings!

They no longer have anyone who can finish needlepoint belts. They cannot give advice about how many more inches to stitch, in case it would be wrong for whatever finisher I might locate. They do not sell embroidery floss. They do listen to their voicemails, but not until the end of the day, so didn't receive the several I had left. They do still have a beautiful array of fibers, but overall the trip was a waste of time.
