More Modern Mexican Furniture


So many people like a more modern look to their furnishing and we have found some wonderful places that can make copies of Danish Modern to just updated styles. Again these can be made to your specifications and fabrics can be selected by you or you can look through samples that we have at the store. The company that fabricates this furniture has been in Mexico for many years and have a wonderful reputation.

Hand Carved furniture from Michoacan


We have received on consignment several pieces of hand carved, some painted, headboards, benches and night tables. They are all intricately hand carved in sugar pine. The photo that I have attached is a coffee table and two end tables painted a dark green. The peacock is painted in many different colours and would add charm to any room. The price for all 3 pieces is: $700.00 but you can buy only one piece is you like.

These pieces are made in small little towns by skilled artisans.

Modern Mexican Furniture


We have discovered many different manufacturers of furniture in the Baja California area and one in particular has made and is making furniture for a leading American Company. I have attached a photo of a love seat, sofa and coffee table that we can have made in many different colours of microsuede. My husband who is a rather large fellow claims that "this is the first comfortable sofa that he has tried". The wood is alder and unlike furniture that you buy in the US it is not a veneer over hardwood solids. The coffee table is made of alder and alder wood only. If you have any questions or comments please let me know. The pricing on this set is very reasonable for the quality that you would get. I am learning more and more everyday about furniture that is made in Mexico and how it differs from the furniture made in the US and Canada.
