The best-kept secret at the St. Lawrence Market, Barbara Griffin and Kelly Stapleton’s antiques emporium carries feminine furniture for the home. A shabby-chic bureau can be had for $200, a Shaker-style primitive bench for $175. A yellow deco sideboard with mirrored panels sold for $200, making way for a Depression-era china cabinet ($395). This is also the go-to store for vintage textiles: tablecloths, curtains, rugs and bedclothes in wool, linen, Irish lace and chenille. Best in show goes to the post-war bark cloth drapes ($20–$80), each telling a tale of the South Pacific.
