apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

Scott Jordan is on our must-visit list for really good wood furniture at affordable prices. Beginning as a furniture restoration business, Scott Jordan took his experience with fine wood furniture and began designing and building his own.

The look is cleanly updated, with hints of Mission and Shaker styles thrown in. Vermont is somewhere in the DNA. We go here for well made beds, tables, bookshelves and chairs, but Scott Jordan also sells quality sofas, mattresses and children's furniture as well. Their one showroom on Varick and Spring is a pleasure to visit, furniture is customizable and service is excellent.

Zagat Survey says: "Supremely beautiful," "handcrafted" "heirloom quality" and "if you like solid cherry furniture, start here first."

We like the pierrepont pencil post bed ($2900-$3600), the Ashland Bed ($1600-$2300), and the Vermont Designs dresser family.
