On Apartment Therapy
Looking for a desk and willing to venture into the biggest smorgasbord of antiques on Atlantic Avenue? Horseman Antiques is an old school bricks and mortar operation (no website) that has been on Atlantic Avenue for 40 years. Repeatedly winning "best of..." awards (like this one below in Citysearch) they are an essential stop when looking for English, French, Empire and American mid-century modern furniture.

I'm not anonymous. I'm sure the owner knows exactly who I am. They sold us a chair for $700 that broke within two weeks. They kept it five weeks trying to fix it. When we got it home, we tried sitting on it - it broke again immediately. They told us they had tried to repair it "out of the goodness of their hearts," and that they had another of our "one of a kind" chairs in the shop - we could "exchange" it but only if we paid them another $350. We decided not to give them any more of our money, since we feel like they knew it was broken when they sold it. We have filed a Better Business Bureau complaint, so I guess the owner can't say no one has filed a complaint on them anymore. Let us save you the trouble: If you see one of a kind cowhide Danish modern chairs, don't buy them. The only recourse we feel we have at this point is to warn everyone else to save their money and not buy from this shop. This was a splurge for us and we feel very, very burned since it was clearly defective when we bought it. Lyn452 on May 25, 2010
