Three years ago, store owners Phil and Cynthia Markowitz merged their Queen Street East locations under one roof, but by no means have they downsized their selection of vintage treasures. On one visit, the showroom featured such contemporary sofas as a three-piece modular with an adjustable back, and an Eames compact. Be sure to explore the spacious back rooms, as well: these labyrinthine areas are filled with an array of vintage lounge pieces, including a Donahue coconut chair in chocolate brown leather ($1,950), and mink brown wire chairs ($295 each). Other items of note include an elliptical glass coffee table with a splayed wood base ($495) and a Heywood Wakefield desk chair in maple ($2,250).
