its called "douglas designer consignment" and its just that. beautiful designer furniture and home accessories in the douglas design district.
they have all consignment pieces but from the looks of it they only accept the best, in like-new condition, largely in the "new traditional" style (contemporary + traditional, my favorite). the great thing is, the prices are definitely not what you would pay for new. they have multiple rooms— which were somewhat sparsely merchandised (hey, its the first day open)— with items ranging from $30 pillows or glassware set, to a $200 pair of sconces, to tapestries and beautiful, quality furniture in the hundreds and my favorite...one absolutely gorgeous, huge china cabinet at $2,000.

| great chair and desk |
and, if you know anything about shopping consignment/ antique, you know you have to stop by frequently, as you'll often see new stuff in each time you're there.

| fav finds: bamboo frame $65 |
and if i had a $5,000 couch, i would. they look like they know what they're doing. great taste.
p.s. my apologies for the flawed photos. i forgot bring my camera today but these are a few shots i snapped with my tab. i'll post better photos next time.
go forth and consign. or buy consignment. at the very least... stop by!
