If it’s Mid-Century modern you dream of (and how can you not?) then look no further than Prague Kolektiv. I’ve know about this store for years ever since I passed by it on a window shopping spree in the Dumbo section of Brooklyn. I’ve yo-yo’d on sharing this golden kernel of knowledge with the world.

While living in NYC, I thrived on good sample sales. That’s where I would buy all of my “nice” stuff”. For months, I looked for them in Philadelphia but to no avail.
