Sell to Us · Mid-Century Modern
Sell mid-century furniture without lifting a credenza.
The furniture bought new by Orange County’s post-war families, Danish teak, walnut credenzas, sculptural lamps, low-slung sofas, is exactly what collectors and designers compete for today. If you are clearing a parent’s home or finally letting go of pieces you have lived with for decades, sell them to people who know the makers.

Post-war Orange County built these rooms
From the Eichler tracts of Orange to the ranch homes of Garden Grove, Costa Mesa, and Anaheim, this county furnished itself in the exact era the design world now prizes. The best finds are almost always houses where one family stayed put, original owners, original furniture, original everything. If that sounds like the home you are clearing, we would genuinely like to see it before a liquidator does.

Common questions
Should I refinish furniture before selling?
No, and this one matters. Original finish, even worn, is usually worth more than a fresh refinish, and an amateur restoration can cut a piece’s value in half. Sell it as it sits.
How do I know if it’s a ’name’ piece?
Check drawers, undersides, and frames for stamps, labels, or burned-in marks, Danish control tags, maker medallions, designer signatures. But plenty of valuable pieces are unmarked; the lines and construction tell us what the label doesn’t.
Do you buy reproductions?
Generally no, we buy period pieces. If you are unsure what you have, text us a photo and we will tell you straight before either of us spends an afternoon on it.
