The Golden Triangle

For lovers of Asian furniture, this is heaven. We made two separate trips to this place in a single day, and I still feel like there is stuff we missed. For some, the prices may seem high, but you have to realize what you’re getting. Some of these pieces are of the highest quality you can get and are made by individuals who devote their entire life to perfecting the trade. The staff at Golden Triangle is knowledgable and willing to help you with making the perfect selection for your home or business.

One of my favorite stores in the world.
Amazing goods from around the globe displayed with the utmost taste and sophistication.
A feast for the eyes.
Prices reflect a level of quality and taste that’s difficult to find elsewhere.

Even if you aren’t in the market for Asian antiques, this store is worth checking out. Beautifully laid out with some really stunning pieces; the staff is incredibly friendly and outgoing (and not in a pushy way). They carry mostly Asian antiques but have some French and newer pieces made locally. Give yourself an hour to check everything out in detail.
What my ratings mean:
1 star: Horrible. I’m annoyed I wasted my time and/​or money here.
2 star: Not bad but nothing special. A decent place if you can’t find something else. I’d equate this to something like McDonald’s.
3 star: I enjoyed my experience there and would go back to try or do more things there.
4 star: I loved it and would be excited to go back. I’d also recommend it to a friend.
5 star: A real gem of a place. A must on anyone’s list.

They have occasional parties for their customers (including people like me who never buy anything expensive there), and last night the let me in to one of them even though I was late in responding to their invitation and they were at capacity. Not only was this kind of them, but I also realized all over again what I love about these occasions: you can spend over an hour rambling from room to room looking closely at their amazing store of objects without looking like you’re casing the joint. It’s one of the most beautiful spaces in the city, and seems to be getting more and more eclectic – the stuff they are selling is not just Asian, but a mélange of Asian, British colonial (in Asia), French and Eastern European. Somehow they make it all cohere. If I win the lottery. .. Till then, it’s a good source of jewelry and little wooden netsuke or ojime, which I give my friends’ kids for birthdays and the like.

My taste ran spang up against my bank account here, and taste lost. The prices here are very high, though frankly not out of line considering the quality of the merchandise. Everything is beautifully displayed in room settings, though in some areas, there’s simply too much to take in. Still, this is a place to savor. I was happy to see that there were some European antiques in evidence since Asian style, particularly Chinese, which makes up the bulk of the merchandise here, is not really my glass of tea. Nice mix of antique and contemporary with a line of reclaimed materials to add an even more eclectic air.
But seriously, if you’re not prepared to drop hundreds if not thousands of dollars, don’t expect to do much shopping here.

A treasure trove of well-​designed objects from around the world. My boyfriend took me there (we are both architects) and we were inspired by both the merchandise and the layout. Most items are expensive, as you might expect, but think of it as more of a gallery than a store. The owner was very friendly and gave us a behind-​the-​scenes tour of the woodshop where they restore antique peices and create new.

This shop is nicely laid out, but overpriced and entirely asian antiques. This was a surprise based upon their description.

Fabulous. Not at all a cliché of Asian antiques and a caricature of «ethnic» design. Upscale and dedicated to knowing their stuff. If you want to live among beautiful objects, stop in and observe.

They’ve got fabulous asian antiques here. With over 11,000 square feet of display space, its almost impossible to not see anything you like! Keep tabs on them because they also have markets and special sale shows frequently!
