[quote=Anonymous]PP here who requested the links. Um, the one with the couches looked ok, but I found the other two sites to be pretty ugly. Ethan Allen has stores in the area and has high-quality furniture. They might have some things that are ornate enough to fit your taste. I really recommend actual antiques. In addition to actual Victorian furniture, some depression-era furniture (from around the 1930s) is curvy, ornate, and well-made; it's less expensive than Victorian stuff. Actual Victorian stuff can be comparable in price to what your were looking at, especially if you can shop in more rural areas. If you buy from an antique shop, keep in mind that you can often get a lower price (5-10%) simply by asking politely (i.e., "Is there a chance I could get a better price on this?"), which most dealers expect. I agree with the poster who said to make sure that couches and chairs are comfy and sturdy, especially since you have kids. [/quote]
