I'm looking to pick up something for my apartment, and want something interesting, and something inexpensive, and something that will last.
One of the problems of living up here in the great white North of Vancouver is that selection is limited, and part of it is due to the fact that there are just about as many Canadians as there are Californians.
Anyhow, gripes aside, I got turned onto Hancock and Moore, and am interested in something like this:

in black, black, black. Or maybe a little bit of brown in the wood.
Anyhow, does anyone have any 'ins' in the furniture industry on here? I'll hook you up with wings+horns stuff if you'd like.

I had in mind that a $8000 couch from Linge Roset was expensive, ditto for pretty much everything else in DWR -- they're fabric, amply and quite well knocked off with quite acceptable levels of quality, for fractions of what they're asking. Well-made leather couches with solid hardwod frames, hand-made with hardwood for $2000 - $3000 are, IMHO a pretty good deal. I got a quote for $3500 + shipping, which is a little rich. Think it's possible for me to get it for $2000 to $2500?
