Dept. of Tribalism. Supressed by the NYTimes, Eboniste sent us their press kit and pics last night after they had appeared in H&H. Whatever. H&H didn't show barely anything at all.

Headed up by two MBA's, Scott Frankum and Jay Ward, this brand new shop is a nice new edition to the global/tribal/world trend and promises to stay as focused on your wallet and the coffee bean style as only a company run by MBA's can. The woods used are reclaimed and naturally finished, the serving pieces are mother of pearl, silver and horn. Everything is made in Shanghai, Singapore and Bali.

The pitch: this is unique, aspirational furniture that evokes a romantic modernist mood. Four collections reflect four different moods: Great Cities, Bali, Milan, Marias and are simple, elegant pieces that could be mixed into a wide range of rooms. Eboniste will be adding more pieces to fill out their lifestyle niche.

Prices run from $450 to $1500 for tables and chairs. Our favorites are The Parc side table ($825 - top), The London side table ($795) and The Architect nesting tables ($1450 - bottom). MGR

I emailed Eboniste 4 times and left 2 phone messages trying to place an order. Nobody ever bothered to get back to me. I took them off my "favorites" and will never try them again. There are other stores that carry the same things as Eboniste. If they are so disinterested in a designer trying to place an order then I wouldn't trust them to actually deliver.

I placed an order with Eboniste for two tables in October. I was told the items would ship in 3 weeks...the website said it would be 4-6 weeks. It's been 7 weeks. I've called, left messages, & sent emails to inquire about ship dates and received no response whatsoever.
