If you like finding one-of-a-kind furniture or decorative pieces, statement pieces or antiques…read morewhich might have some interesting story attached to it, then you owe yourself a visit to Shivam Imports. Located in the ground floor of a warehouse straddling the very top of De l'Eglise Avenue, St. Patrick, the Lachine Canal and underneath the highway, I would never have even guessed or known about this place if it wasn't for the fact that my brother recently bought a beautiful, hand-carved wooden table here from Rajasthan, India - the kind you see in decorative magazines, high end lofts and spas or super posh furniture stores only you're too scared to look at the prices there. Here, you can look at them all you want and you'll be floored at the bargains you'll find, no joke. Shivam Imports is normally a wholesaler but they do sell to individuals and the prices are more than reasonable for the sorts of pieces in their showroom, but you need to make an appointment to visit their showroom (at the moment). So despite the appointments and out-of the way location, it is well worth your while to stop in and have a good look. You won't regret it. First off, this ain't no IKEA. You'll find hand-carved teak tables, antique mirrors, crazy pillars which look like the belong in a palace of some Maharajah, antique finished cabinets, candle-holders, unique pieces like wooden headboards. Stuff no one you know will ever have because everything here is so individual and unique. If you're like me and don't like generic anything, love old-fashioned quality then you'll just love it here. Andrew the owner is a really chill, easy-going guy and often buys pieces directly in India and makes trips several times a year there. If you're thinking of re-decorating, need some ideas or inspiration or looking for that one unique mirror to place in your room or a conversation-piece coffee table, look no further.

It was like walking into some pinterest version of my dream home. Giftwares for the whimsical, light and airy, modern-bohemian-hipster person in your life (or yourself), this store had so much that I would want, including the serving bowl size versions of the dish set I already own.

But, then again, it also is reasonably priced, which makes it a better version of Anthropologie in my books.

Almost broke my back as one gave out under me and I am considering throwing the rest out as safety is a major concern. Never bought from Brault et Martineau before and will never again. the chairs cost almost $1000 and I am very upset The service not much better as the initial return due to quality concern over the set of chairs took over a month to organize made a very expensive mistake

This store has the best prices on industrial furniture in Montreal. If you are looking for an industrial hint in your decor, this is a very affordable option. There is also Style Labo on St. Laurent, which has wonderful pieces as well, but their prices tend to be 2-3 times as much as Retro Vie. The lady who owns the store, Vanessa, is very kind and helpful. She can deliver as well, for very very reasonable rates. This shop also does restorations and reupholstery of old furniture on site. I don't think they offer this service to the public, but this means that they're always bringing in great new pieces, both very antique and restored as well. Her selection is pretty wide. A lot of her wares are authentic industrial pieces from old factories (very neat), but she also has great art deco pieces as well as shabby chic pieces. She also has some very neat knick-knacks here and there.. last time I was there, she had an old insurance salesman's notebook, it was about 80 years old. Even cute industrial staplers. I love this place.
