Everything you need to furnish an elegant, surprisingly livable abode.. The Scene


Ethan Allen has been in business since 1932?testament to the inarguable quality of their home furnishings. Service is friendly and professional, and every showroom is large and thoughtfully arranged. Wander through a Victorian bedroom, then cut across the hall for a peek at a rustic den or contemporary living room.



What You'll Find


The furniture at Ethan Allen is tasteful rather than conservative. Designs are elegant and everything is built to last. Among the most beautiful offerings are the 18th-century replicas, made from fine velvets, brocades and hardwoods. A large, central display shows off a vast array of fabric swatches.



What You'll Spend


It's always fun to browse, but if you're looking to buy, cost had better not be an issue.

Most sofas are priced more than $2,000 with a traditional leather chair costing around $1,000.
