Retro fancy
When I was a kid, I thought this furniture store in Montclair, NJ was the epitome of fanciness. That when I achieved Ann-Margret baked bean adult status that I would shop for all my furniture here.

Tommy can hear you...
So is it worth taking a look in there? Seems too rich for my blood.
Of course I've never gone in...I've created a whole fantasy world about it! Here's their website: http://www.hamptonhousefurniture.net/
Seems like an Ethan Allen type place? But you live the closest, so please send us a report!
Very "Boardwalk Empire" signage; love your fantasy world, especially "Ann-Margret baked-bean status" which is a pretty hilarious flight of fancy in itself.
