Questions
What types of furniture do you accept for consignment?
We accept high-end brand-name and custom-designed furniture in excellent condition. Items should show minimal wear and come with provenance details like manufacturer information, purchase history, and original pricing.
How are consignment prices determined?
Pricing considers original value, current condition, market demand, and our typical 50% retail price guideline. We collaborate with consignors to set competitive prices that ensure timely sales while maximizing returns.
What happens if my item doesn't sell?
Unsold items can be picked up after 60 days or remain with us at a reduced price. We'll discuss options for price adjustments and extended consignment periods before making any decisions.
Do you carry new furniture?
While our core offering is consigned furniture, we maintain a curated selection of new retail accessories from international brands like Iittala, Le Jacquard Francais, and Michael Aram for complementary decorating.
How often do you receive new inventory?
We receive new consigned items almost daily, with fresh arrivals displayed regularly. This ensures our inventory remains dynamic and provides returning customers with new discoveries on each visit.

We consigned a number of items of furniture with Modele's when we sold our Seattle condo. Modele's did an amazing job selling all the items that were consigned. Thank you Modele!

We really love the always changing and interestingly curated collection of furnishings at Modele's. We have found several wonderful pieces for our home. Their furniture is consistently in very good condition and the variety helps one discover pieces that aren't available in current design stores. Best of all, the staff members are always friendly and willing to offer their perspective and assistance. A true gem!

They carry outstanding stuff. Friendly staff. If you like something they have, buy it -- items can sell quite quickly.

We have been a Modeles customer for 20 years. Our favorite furniture and accessories are from Modeles. The staff is well trained and you are always greeted warmly. Modeles has been written up in local and national publications. If you are lucky you will get a kiss from the shop dog Betty!
