Antiques dealer Todd Merrill has fully embraced the over-the-top style of "notorious, possibly even murderous mid-century decorator" James Mont in his New York apartment. New York Magazine gives us a peak peek at Merrill's West Chelsea living room that's filled to the brim with the smoky mirrors, lacquerwork and gold and silver-leafed furniture that defines Mont's style...

That should be "peek," not "peak."

1stdibs did a nice feature on Merril and Mont awhile back: http://www.1stdibs.com/articles/onlocation/todd_merrill/index.php
Antiques (The Magazine) also did a great feature in July 2008 but it's not accessible online.

Is there a good place to enquire about a Mont piece?

The Antiques Magazine article is here:
