Where to buy fine, really high-quality furniture?
-
When my parents were married, they bought some really nice sets of furniture. They were nice woods - solid cherry, mahogany, etc and handmade, I think in the USA for all of them. This sort of stuff: http://www.daviscabinetcompany.com/home2.html (that was one of them. I've heard this company has overseas manufacturing now too, though :( I love this stuff, but now it seems like the world is overrun with these big-box furniture stores... mass produced furniture from *somewhere* in the world, with plywood and particleboard and whatever else. It is frustrating. Where can you buy fine furniture these days? Especially made in America. I'd love links and even recommendations of particular lines. Right now I'm looking for a bedroom suite, but would love to see anything that you think is the best of the best. PS - I live in the Boston area (between Boston and New Hampshire) so if you have actual store recommendations for my area, I would welcome those too! Thank you!!

Answer:
I know what you mean. I like the fine-crafted wood but I've never had the money to really go to a high-end store. I did find a great 100% mahogany bed at Bombay Company which I'm very happy with and found some matching nightstands and chest-of-drawers at an antique store. Sometimes it's just a matter of searching. update - sorry, it looks like they filed Chapter 11 in September 2007. It's too bad since they had nice stuff.
