I just had Jubilee Furniture pick up a number of pieces of furniture that won’t work in a new house we’re moving into on the 14th. I can say with complete honesty that Cameron and Gary – our donation pickup team – are the best! I routinely receive follow up calls from donors expressing their thanks and appreciation for the excellent work the guys did! It’s not an easy job and a lot of Jubilee Furniture’s success hinges on them – not only moving furniture carefully and well – but also doing a good job of connecting with donors so they contact us again if they have quality, used furniture to donate and/or refer us to others.
I’ll be out next week (packing, packing and probably also packing – ha!) so look to the Furniture Gallery for the latest inventory. But for now, here’s a look at SOME of what’s currently in the store:
here are two Room & Board identical sofas that – I think – have never been used. Here’s a theory one of our amazing volunteers had and I agree with. These were showroom sofas and they sat in a lovely sunny window. They had several throw pillows on them to make them more attractive (‘cause that’s what throw pillows do!). Over time the sun faded both sofas EXCEPT where the throw pillows were. What once were fairly dark (black?) fabric has faded to a brownish color – that’s actually very nice – BUT due to the areas where the sun couldn’t/didn’t reach the sofas aren’t completely or uniformly faded (though fairly uniformly faded along the back and sides). You can see the faded/not faded material in the fifth and sixth photos as well as what looks like shadows – but isn’t – in the first two shots. Other than the weird faded issue these puppies are pristine! Here’s a link to what I think is the same sofa on the R&B website and it retails for over $2,800. The Jubilee Furniture price? $250 each. Man alive – that’s a deal!
three piece McCreary sectional – some wear and everything needs to be adjusted (know what I mean?) – priced $225
we received eight of these small wingback chairs from a condo building in Wheaton where they sat on each floor in a common area (not sure anyone ever sat on ‘em). All eight are the same color and pattern and all are in very good condition. Priced $30 each
great oversized sofa by Lane priced $175
gorgeous Bauhaus sofa priced $215
wonderful sleeper sofa in excellent condition priced $225
here’s a Herman Miller Eames knock-off chair and ottoman in good condition except the two button on the chair seat have come off (they’re in a baggie taped to the bottom of the chair). Priced $195
green micro-suede sofa in good condition priced $125
I am totally in love with this Bassett navy and white hounds-tooth loveseat! It needs to be cleans (though maybe a spot cleaning will do) and is priced $85
excellent condition micro-suede sofa for $210; equally excellent chair and ottoman for $115
gorgeous green leather side chair for $235 (by Classic Leather); oak drop leaf side table for $45
beautiful black painted china cabinet for $215
it’s hard to tell in these photos but both of these Bassett dressers have a wicker material on the drawer fronts (adds cool texture). Wherever it looks like it’s two smaller drawers – it isn’t – it’s one long drawer. Shorter, three drawer dresser is priced $55; taller, five drawer dresser is $75
very nice pine dining table with two leaves and six chairs (two with arms) priced $225; matching buffet for $85
space saving corner bench (with shallow storage where the seat top lifts up), table and backless bench – everything needs to be tightened and a little TLC – priced $85 for the whole set
I’ll post a reminder next week that I’m out of the office along with a link to the Furniture Gallery. Until next time then, dear reader!
